This is a great place to stay in Paris, especially when you are on a budget. For the location, which is close to public transit, the Opera, restaurants, shops, and the Galleries Lafayette, the price of this room is a great deal. It was nice to be thirty minutes or less from all the major sights so that we could pop back in the hotel for rest before heading out again.
Our bed was comfortable and roomy (a queen, not a double), and there were four comfortable pillows on bed. The room was clean and Paris - sized (economically functional -enough room to lay out two suitcases, but not enough to have a party). There was a window in the room that opened all the way, which is great if you want fresh air. The air conditioner was glorious because the temps outside were in the 90’s. We also loved having a room safe.
There was construction work going on for the hotel next door, but we did not experience much noise from it. As in most hotels, we could hear hall noises, but they were not anything out of the ordinary. I am an extremely light sleeper, so I sleep with some kind of white noise device playing in the room. The noises at this hotel were not enough to wake me prematurely from sleep, which is great.
The front reception, especially Massi, were excellent and responsive to individual requests.
Yes, the hallways and elevator were small, but this is Paris and you can’t expect things to be large.
It was awesome to have a free drinks (non-alcoholic) mini-fridge in the room and free snack near the lobby. We did not use it, but to be able to access the snacks (or restrooms) of the other hotels in the same group of hotels is a great amenity. A map was provided for all the hotels in the group so that you could visit them when you were out touring.
