The staff and the owner were nice people, if you asked something they would try to accomadate you the best they can in our expirience
Very convenient location just a short walk from the subway. It is slightly out of the heart of Paris so doesn’t feel as “touristy” which was nice (hypocritical coming from a tourist!).
Room with private bathroom. Small but clean and serviced.
Typical European breakfast of cold meats, cheeses and breads with tea/coffee/juice provided in the morning was lovely.
The staff were super friendly despite me not knowing much French throughout the stay. I called to let them know I would be arriving a bit after the latest check in time (due to mishaps figuring out how to get from the airport to the accom) and they were very accomodating. They helped us carry our luggage upstairs despite how late it was.
Definitely would book again if I return. Thanks for the stay! :)
I always stay here when I come to Paris. I always feel like I'm family and I'm welcome. It's right by the Saint Mande stop on the Yellow line, which may still be a few stops from the city center, but I don't mind. I prefer being away from the noise and hustle and bustle of the city. They have their own restaurant and bar, which gets busy and certainly says a lot about the place. Midweek there's a very charming flea market that gets set up right outside, which is definitely a treat.
The staff at the property were so friendly and helpful. Its located perfectly if you dont want to be in the thick of it, but easy to get back into the centre of Paris.
It could do with redecorating and deep cleaning ie; cleaning dust around the air vents, removing what looked like a little blood on the curtain and refreshing the carpets. But overall you get what you pay for, its cheap and convenient.
I will stress again how lovely and friendly the staff were.
The hotel is very central. Although it is a fair distance to the Eiffel Tower we were able to walk there and visited other historical sites like Notre Dame Cathedral and the Arc de Triomphe along the way.
Room is good for the price and close to the trains. They need to promote the access around the back as the front entrance is through the restaurant, which was closed when we arrived.
The service provided at the breakfast buffet was pretty good, but the rest of the stay was below average. They do not have bag check which effected our plans for the day. The back door was more appropriate for the hotel but the address showed the front door which led to an awkward walk through the restaurant to check in.

Adequate but very tiny room - had a suitcase thing to use but absolutely no space to put it! Very basic with no extras. Breakfast cheap - bread, croissants, ham, cheese or jam. A fruit salad too but it was awful! Nice coffee. So a mix really - wouldn’t return but it was sufficient, just not enjoyable.

Tout le personnel est courtois et serviable. La chambre est tres bien.
Ce petit hôtel est très bien situé par rapport à l'accès au métro. En revanche, les chambres sont peu insonorisées : on entend ce qui se passe dans les autres chambres et le bruit de la rue qui est très passante. Les chambres sont vétustes.
J’ai été très bien accueilli et surtout rapidement. La chambre est simple mais très correcte. Bon rapport qualité prix petit-déj’ à 9 euros. L’hôtel dispose d’un restaurant avec une belle carte.
Le petit point à améliorer, à mon avis, serait d’installation d’une clim malgré le gros ventilateur à disposition.
Sinon, excellente impression générale pour une centaine d’euros, compte tenu de l’emplacement. Merci à toute l’équipe.
Personnel accueillant et très aimable nous a servi à manger malgré notre arrivée tardive. Chambre propre et calme mais malheureusement non climatisé (il faisait très chaud hier), mais équipé d'un ventilateur bien utile.
