If location is everything, then this is the place. It's small with only one (very good) bed to sit on other than four table chairs. During the occurring heat wave we had a choice between peaceful quite (quite good windows and thick walls) with hot; or decent breezes with much street noise throughout the day and most of the night. Interesting conversations and drama until sometimes 4 am with street sweeping and trash pickup beginning around 6. But definitely worth it. Left bank Parisian (and tourist?) culture at its more interesting.
