Hi all,

I have a flight to israel Thursday night and we are supposed to stay through Shavuot. It is just me and my wife visiting some family and looking to enjoy the usual Tel Aviv and Jerusalem experience. We’re 25, without much experience with the sirens before. We’ve never been in israel during active wartime.

Is it safe to come now, or should we cancel and try to reschedule? No guarantee we can, but I want to hear what it’s actually like there.

Please let me know whatever you think!

Has anyone stayed at the CitizenM Paris Opera recently and can let me know if they fixed their “sewage smell” issue? A whole bunch of reviews noted it and I’m leaning towards staying here after people told me it’s a great area in another post.

Alternative would be moxy bastille.

Thanks all!

Hi everyone!

I am looking into booking a hotel in Paris and (unfortunately) have landed on the two in the title. Moxy Paris Bastille or citizenM paris opera. I am using Marriott 50K certificates to book from September 2nd to 6th, and do not want to go way over the 50k per night.

Can anyone help me out and recommend one over the other, or let me know if these are truly both terrible options. They both have negative reviews. Spefically, Moxy has mentions of AC not working and some smells. CitizenM Paris has tiny rooms (which is completely fine for us), but there a large amount of reviews of sewage smells coming into the rooms. I would not do well with this. Does anyone know if that is still an issue? Is it over exaggerated?

Any help would be amazing! And if anyone wants to donate points so we aren’t staying at the lowest end of hotels…lol.

Thanks all in advance!
