    Heat would have been nice.

    Received a good deal on this room in a good location. Arrived and was asked to shell out another 6 euros for tax. No problem, as the room was on special. Checking the rates others pay as high as 300+ a night for this hotel, which is INSANE. As a reward for the great deal I had, I was given a tiny room facing the street next to the brightly lit hotel sign. Still a fair deal. No outlets so I had to get on a chair and unplug the TV and plug in my phone balancing it on the casing. Still OK. One meter square shower without curtains. Ok! Water is hot enough with decent pressure and water everywhere is their problem. Place is clean and I will not be there much. Arrive home at 11pm and its freezing. Radiators close to cold. Oh I see it has a split-system so I will turn it on. Out blows cold air. The display states it is controlled by central overlords! Ok...but not ok. No heat in the room. Slept in my clothes and still cold...staff are nice but will not return, even at my special bargain price. It is a shame as it would not have cost them much to raise the room a few degrees....but you get what you pay for, fair enough...

    Very small bedroom, though shower room was fine. No hot drink making equipment in the room, though there was a kettle & drinks machine in the lobby.

    Easy access to transport. Nice area. Basic, but economical hotel. Friendly staff. Clean and tidy.

    That there was no kettle in the room. There is, however, a kettle in the reception.

    The location was great right beside the metro with a variety of restaurants nearby. The staff were really friendly and helpful.

    Nothing

    The location was excellent. The Latin quarter was not overloaded with tourists and had a very French feel to it. The hotel is very close to 2 metro lines and is easy walking to many attractions. The rooms are European small but very clean and nice. The staff was so professional, helpful, and friendly.

    Cozy hotel on a practical location

    If you've never been to Paris before in a classic building - the stairs are tiny and the lift is tiny so if you're on the bigger side, this might be uncomfortable. It's not specific to this hotel, it's just a classic Paris thing

    The location of this hotel is great if you enjoy walking around, as well as very close to several metro lines, making it easy to move around the city. The neighborhood is lively, but at night it's really surprisingly quiet. The rooms really are rather small, but it was manageable. The staff is available 0-24.

    The toilet was old and had a very tiny tub that you had to sit in when taking a shower in order to not get water everywhere.

    Very good location and good price. There are a lot of nice places to visit close by. The room was clean and warm and had everything you needed. Very pleasant and helpful staff. Breakfast buffet could be purchased for a decent price

    If I have to mention something then it must be that my room didn’t have the view of les Arènes the Lutèce, even though it looked like that when booking. But well, I was only there for a good sleep and a shower, so not having the view didn’t influence my stay 😊

    The location is awesome, very close to three metro stops and to the lively Rue Mouffetard. The room was not big, but very clean with a comfy bed. Staff are really kind!
