To the attention of thrill-seekers! I have been
staying at the Accor hotels chain for many years now, and I always rejoice at your pleasant compliments and small surprises for regular customers. But Ibis Styles Paris Gare De Lyon Bastille exceeded all my expectations! Thank you for giving me such an incredible range of emotions, leaving me almost penniless!
It so happened that, unable to use the card in Europe, I was carrying a substantial amount of cash with me. And so, naively, in order not to take risks on the streets of the city, I left them in a locked suitcase in a locked room in the morning! Yes, rashly, but the reputation of the network and all that! And no, of course there was no safe!
Alas, by the time I returned, the money was not there. Here I would like to express my special gratitude to the wonderful thief that at least the documents and other objects dear to my heart remained untouched! Otherwise, I would have lived under the bridge of my beloved Paris, which, although tempting and romantic, would hardly have been good for my health.
The night porter, to whom I sobbed to report the loss, was very sympathetic to me, but explained that he did not intend to call the police, because it was not in his competence, and the manager would only be at 09.00 in the morning. And I didn't know about the location of the nearest police station either.
And at 6 a.m. I left for the airport, frantically calculating whether I would make it with the remaining couple of dozen euros.
Thank you for the lesson, my precious ones! It turned out to be expensive, but for life!
I hope your guests will take into account my mistakes and prepare well for their visit here. And the weak in spirit may even prefer a less extreme place!
