Good breakfast and great location. The room was overall clean. Only minor issue was that there was a water leakage from the ceiling in the bathroom from upstairs. Mentioned about it to the receptionist but it wasn’t fixing during my stay.

Gloria was very helpful from the beginning with English and friendly smile. If the all the men was more approachable it would have been 5. I wished that hotel came with fridge. It also needed more or better light. Overall it’s a great hotel and walking to Luxembourg park and the Pantheon.

Location, location, location! Close to metro and bus stops. Walking distance to Notre Dame, Louvre, Orsay, etc. Dozens of good restaurants and cafes nearby. The rooms are small - let’s be clear about this. Also the step up into the tub/shower is really high so maybe not a good choice for older or less mobile patrons, but the staff was delightful and the room was comfortable and ESPECIALLY quiet. We were very pleased.

Staff was very helpful, and the hotel was clean. I did feel that the first room we were put into did not match anything that was advertised, but we returned and stayed again in a different room that was very comfortable. Air conditioning was a dream, so thankful during the heat wave.
