The price…fantastique for paris.
The temperature…not as much. Only the common chill rooms on each floor have air conditioning, not the individual dorm rooms, but the staff added to the problem because they said there was ventilation in the room that kept the room temperature between 17 and 22 C; there was even a digital “indicator” on the wall that ALWAYS said 17.0 C (even after putting your hand over it, leaning on it, and breathing on it for awhile.) It was clearly programmed to always indicate 17.0 C, regardless of the rooms actual temperature. There was a small, 10-15 cm circular duct that might provide ventilation to the room, but it never had any discernible air movement theough it. My estimate of the nighttime temp in the room is 27-32 C…hot enough that it was uncomfortable to sleep.
Other than the climate control issue and the misleading statements about it from the staff, it’s a good place. Friendly staff. Very clean. Within walking distance of the islands on the seine. The restaurant on the second floor was also great for breakfast. I would definitely recommend it if you knew the weather was going to be pleasant. For us, in June during the beginning of a heat wave, it was just too warm.
