Tiny room, but you get what you pay for in that area of Paris. Wonderfully helpful people working there, all staff from reception desk, to cleaners. If you just need a room on a budget, good option.

Great location close to many restaurants, shops and a grocery store. Best part was that a cafe was attached, open most of the day for coffee to-go or dine in. French and yet a bit of a familiar U.S. quirky hotel feel.

Funky property, in an excellent location. Able to get a North American style breakfast in the lobby is a plus. Vinyl records and a record player, projection TV and a super industrial setup make this one of the most unique hotels I've had the pleasure of staying in.
