Today started with a walk from the hotel to the HOHO stop at Notre Dame, through the neighborhoods of St. Germain and Latin Quarter, stopping for a yummy Italian ham sandwich at a place called Cosi (not the US chain)... -

The ancient elevator, with the manual exterior door and the buttons with markings showing I have to get off at 5th floor to walk up the steps to the 6th floor (attic, I think I heard fluttering bats last night). No respect. -

From walking around today, Eiffel Tower has changed since I was here last, 11 years ago. There's a lot more security and you can't even walk underneath it without a ticket thanks to the garish plastic barricades. -

Most important thing about the room is that both the bed and shower are great! I wake up super rested and the shower has instant heat and strong, consistent pressure. I would stay here again. -

I'm not sure why all those duplicate posts, mea culpa! -

I posted a pic of the outside of the hotel yesterday, here's the room. Note what looks like it must be roof support practically in the middle of the room. Sure enough, the elevator only goes to the 5th floor and I am on the top floor, 6. The elevator has the old-fashioned cagey manual exterior door as well as the vintage interior automatic "I think I can" door. -

It's chilly and raining, good day for pho, and it was delicious. Now it must be 5 o'clock somewhere... -

My legs are hardly holding up at this point after constant walking from 830am until 230pm. I hope the food is as good as the menu is large. There was a line so I almost changed plans for the sandwich shop next door... -

I'm getting hungry after seeing the people eating, I'm off to Van Gigh and then walking to a Vietnamese restaurant that caught my attention for lunch.
