We arrived in Rouen at 8:30 at night and had to return to Paris on the 6:30 train the next morning and needed a cheap, close to the train station and comfortable hotel just for the one night. The Hotel Astrid was perfect for us, seeing as it is literally across the street from the train station and VERY affordable. However, I would not recommend it for an extended stay, and if you are staying with young children, do NOT let them flip through the TV channels unsupervised because there are only 5 channels and one of them is porn.
