Hôtel Albouy

The staff is very friendly and the location is great (2mins walk from subway station). And there is a supermarket right cross the street.

There is not supply for face cream and proper shampoo/conditioner.

The location was good (1.5-2 minutes from Metro station). The stuff was nice and helpful. The room was not as small as many reviews about Paris say. :) We didn't take the breakfast, so no comments on it. The lift was fun. :)

The lift was very small. It was funny, that my wife and I couldn't get into it on first day (with 1 backback for each). In fact 1 person with a backback could hardly turn around in the lift. :) The extra bed in the room (which we didn't really ned) had very dirty bedsheets! There was a smell in the bathroom, but not really like drain smell...

The location is great and there is a supermarket just across the street.

There is no kettle in the rooms.

I think this is a great hotel for the price. I think Westerners should bear in mind that this is Paris, so if you've ever stayed in a small studio in Paris, it's about exactly what this is. The bathroom is tiny, but I've seen even smaller.

The walls are thin and the bathroom toilet is awkwardly positioned. WiFi was flaky.

friendly staff, good location, best value for your money

there was not any duve only a cover for the bed, everything was really small, and not too many room for cloths

Like everyone else says, the staff is incredibly friendly, polite, and all three we dealt with spoke English very well. Staying there felt like coming home every day, not just to a hotel. Unlike what I read in other reviews, the bathroom was a very reasonable size (i.e. enough room to get changed and shower). The room was quite small, but had a certain charm, which as I mentioned before felt more like home than a hotel. During our whole trip to several cities it was our favourite hotel, despite being the cheapest and smallest.

The elevator really is as small as everyone says; it fits 2 average sized people with no luggage, or 1 person + luggage. Similarly, the corridors are only about 1.5 persons wide. The location is good but not great: it takes about 45 minutes to the Eiffel Tower by metro, or 20-30 minutes to the centre of Paris. The street was quite noisy during the day, but it was very quiet past midnight. At one point the sink in the bathroom was plugged shut, and the button to lift the plug would not work, so we had to pry the plug open with a knife (the receptionist was alone at the time and couldn't leave reception or ask someone to help), but this was not a big problem and took merely 5 minutes to solve.

Rooms clean, staff (with one exception) helpful and friendly), everything in room worked, location central but quiet

Breakfast unexceptional, foyer/reception area/breakfast room decor in need of attention, one man on reception desk reluctant to deal with requests

staff were very nice and helpful, metro station very close, however we were able to walk most of our outings, but we like to walk, bathroom was newly redone

The staff is extremely helpful, even before our arrival explaining the Metro lines to take from the airport. The room was adequate in size. We had stayed there before and wanted to return.

Some things needed repair...the light over the bathroom sink, changing some light bulbs and fixing the holder in the shower for the hand held apparatus.

The hotel staff was very friendly and were happy to speak English. The room was appropriate and fine for our needs.

Staff courtesy and room cleanliness

Triple room was far too small for 3 adults. Do not even consider this option. Could not swing a cat let alone sleep 3 people.Double and single is preferable

The receptionist :)

I liked the availability of the staff, who ranged from polite to very friendly. I also appreciated the cleanliness of the room and the fact that a Metro station was just a block away. It also was advantageous that a grocery was across the street and a vegetarian juice bar was a block away. The wireless Internet was nice also.

The walls between rooms are thin; therefore, if I stayed there again, I'd ask for a room next to a single guest, if possible. I used earplugs one night when the guy next door was talking well into the night. I was disappointed that the planters outside the windows were empty, not one flower in any of them; I would expect that in the middle of winter but not in the first week of fall when the weather was spectacular. The Internet was reliable but not fast enough to watch streaming videos.
