I arrived at the hotel to find the room was very clean and surprisingly roomy, which was great. However, the cleanliness of the room did not meet my expectations as it was not as presentable, and the room was unavailable until 3 hours after the check-in time. The service from the staff, especially for one of the cheapest hotels in central Paris, was outstanding, and they even offered to refund the price difference if I brought back the paid receipt. The location was superb, within easy walking distance of the Latin Quarter and Notre Dame, making it excellent value for money compared to other hotels in the area. Despite the delay in room availability, the easy access to main attractions without needing public transport was a major plus. Unfortunately, the dining experience was not the best, with limited options near the reception area. Overall, a decent hotel with friendly staff and strategic location.

The hotel is in a fantastic location in Paris, within walking distance of Notre Dame and close to lots of restaurants. The rooms were a bit small and challenging to access on the 5th floor without an elevator. Despite the old furnishings giving a prison-like feel, the bed was comfortable. The service was extremely helpful and accommodating, although there was insistence on ordering a transportation service to the airport due to issues with the train.

The hotel is located at the top with a view out to the street, featuring basic rooms that are probably the second most basic I have ever stayed in. The receptionist was accommodating in trusting us for an early check-out arrangement. The location is ideal for first-time Paris visitors as it is convenient and easy to access tourist attractions on foot, although the public transport is not needed. The dining area is near the reception, offering an extra dining experience. The hotel lacks adequate connection speed for videos or movies, with limited access only to emails if lucky.

The hotel is conveniently located near Notre Dame Cathedral, offering great value for money compared to other hotels in the area. The rooms are basic but clean, and the staff is friendly. However, there were occasional issues with reception availability. The dining area provided a cozy atmosphere with homemade bread but lacked some options. Overall, the hotel is a good choice for a budget stay in expensive Paris.

After all the walking during a day, the hotel was extremely dirty and stuffy with bad drains. However, the caring service shared that one of the bathrooms was dirty and broken down, without showers. Besides, I got an excellent recommendation for accommodation in Barcelona. The location, although charging for calling a taxi, is otherwise perfect, near attractions and the metro. The dining area was extra but offered an octopus millefeuille. Overall, the facilities were adequate.

The hotel is a budget-friendly option located close to main attractions, but don't expect frequent room amenities. The service is friendly overall, although some staff members can be rude.

My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The incredible location in the heart of the Latin Quarter of Paris made it all worth it, allowing for easy access to iconic sights like Notre Dame. However, the persistent smell emanating from the shower sewage system was a major drawback. The service was friendly overall, but the state of one of the shared bathrooms was a disappointment.

The hotel is situated in a courtyard outside and offers clean, comfortable rooms. While the decoration might not be the most appealing, the simplicity adds to the charm of the place. The service was a mix of unfriendly encounters along with some genuinely kind and helpful staff. The location is its strongest point, being close to Notre Dame de Paris and various local amenities.
