Hotel Mogador 2*
I paid 92 euros per night for a single room with breakfast, booked online.
Location: A small hotel in the center of Paris (Rue De La Victoire), amazing architecture around - real Paris, which people from all over the world come to see. Walked (using the map) - to the Louvre (15 min), Notre Dame (20 min), the Eiffel Tower (the latter is a bit far, 30-40 minutes on foot). Metro nearby, 5 minutes walk. From the shops - next to the La Faette Gallery (and the corresponding street). A real old hotel, from the time of Napoleon : -)
The hotel is cramped, small, without an elevator (I was placed on the 4th floor), downstairs is a room for eating (breakfast), I can’t call it a restaurant - about 10 sq. meters. There is no reception as such, there is a desk with a computer at the entrance. Shift manager of the reception - he is also a waiter, serves breakfast. Almost every manager speaks English, but once a Chinese was on duty, his English is very weak. Therefore, I had to remember the French numerals, but this turned out to be enough for placement.
Room - I had a view of the wall after 3 m from the window, i. e. "views" were completely absent. The room is very cramped, about 5 sq. m, shower with toilet - 1.5 sq. m. But everything is pretty clean and nice in its own way.
Morning breakfast - a glass of orange juice, tea or coffee, a croissant, butter and jam. Everything. But 5 hours was enough.
Check-out from the hotel - until 12.00. On the last day I checked out at 8.00, and before departure (23.30) I walked around Paris.
I traveled without luggage, with a small backpack. For 3 days I visited 3 museums (Louvre - 9 euros, Les Invalides with the tomb of Napoleon - 9 euros, Notre Dame Treasury museum - 5 euros), walked more than 100 km with my feet through the streets of Paris, went to Disneyland for the whole day, entrance ticket - 56 euros. The last evening before leaving for the airport was like Irish pubs - there are quite a lot of them along the Seine River within walking distance of Notre Dame.
By the way, in Paris you can try to save money. One Sunday a month, entrance to the Louvre is free, a ticket to Disneyland can be bought at the tourist office in Paris, and not directly in front of the entrance (a difference of about 10%), but note: payment is only by credit card, tickets are not sold by bank transfer, etc.
All the time I used only public transport. Directly from the airport you can get to the hotel center by train + metro (it costs 8.5 euros per person), I also went to Disneyland by train. Those. was a real European counting his money : -) Directly from Notre Dame to Charles de Gaulle airport can be reached by direct train in 1 hour.
Souvenirs - do not buy immediately, ask the price. There are places where Arabs sell, for example, key chains in the form of the Eiffel Tower for 2 euros per 10 pieces, while the price of the same souvenir in tents is 1 euro per piece.
But Paris is a rather expensive city and I couldn't save a lot : -) For three days I spent about 350 euros per person (excluding souvenirs).
I liked my vacation option (map, independent organization, maximum outside the hotel), I was lucky with the weather. If I went with my family, I probably should have chosen a different hotel, but overall everything was great. In any case, Paris is a city that you must see with your own eyes, at least once in your life.
