Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
I really like the vibe of this small hotel. It’s super convenient, unpretentious and friendly. You are steps away from the metro to go anywhere you want. Pantheon, Luxembourg Gardens, Mouffetard St, Notre Dame are all within walking distance. And there are lots of restaurants, cafes, boulangeries all around. I love this place, I’ve been there before and I will go back!

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
The staff were very nice. Room size was fine. Bed was very uncomfortable. Shower was nice and hot with good pressure. There was no tea/coffee facilities or tissues in my room. There was a bottle of water supplied when you first arrive but this was not refilled. Quite a lot of the cable television stations were not working (both English & French), and the ones that were, stopped. Unfortunately the staff didn't know how to fix it. Location was excellent. A short walk to the Pantheon and Notre Dame. Bus stops and Metro stations close by. Also, I sent an email regarding laundry facilities, which was not answered. There is no laundry facilities at the hotel (although mentioned in amenities on Hotel.com) , however there is a laundromat about 5 min walk away. Also, a courtesy email regarding the road works out the front would have been appreciated.

Booked a superior room - it was a comfortable size for a 6 night stay. Location was great for sightseeing, the hotel had a decent-sized elevator and a good cafe. The room was quiet and the queen bed was very comfortable. The room had all of the modern amenities (USB plugs, Bluetooth speaker etc) I had read some of the complaints about the bathroom and water spraying - the shower pressure is intense and the design doesn't quite keep all of the water in the tub, but it really wasn't a deal breaker for me. Just use an extra towel on the ground! Only complaint was that we had the fire alarm go off two nights in a row due to an issue with the heating system. The night staff handled it fine but some form of compensation for two nights of disrupted sleep would have been a nice touch.

Room was actually very good and comfortable. Had window open because the weather was cool and beautiful. Shower was very good- big bathroom, hot water and lots of water pressure. The area is perfect- close to everything to walk to and great restaurants everywhere! Only complaint was the noise and construction outside. I would request a room opposite the Main Street so it will be more quiet. There was noise starting every morning at 5 am whether it was the garage trucks, or the construction or people yelling up and down the streets. That’s my only complaint.

Staff and service excellent. However so called wine bar offered just 2 wines by the glass of which at least one was unavailable. We were served a replacement at €9 per glass which literally undrinkable. Rather visit one of the numerous local bars or wine venues!!
