The stay in this hotel was perfect for getting around and enjoying Paris. The front office staff was extremely helpful and guided me on places to go and how to get there. I didn't have the breakfast; however, from my room it smelled nice. The cleaning crew spoke no English, which made it rough to point out a few things, but I expect that not being French. A small gym to work out, if you are into fitness. There is an elevator, but it goes a little slow, so if you rather take the steps remember they are narrow. Other than that, I agree with others that the rooms are small and it gets hot in them at night. You can open your window for a nice breeze that makes sleeping enjoyable, but for the price I could manage for a few days to enjoy my stay in Paris. I will be back! Oh yeah, if you ask for water you will be charged at the end of your stay. It was unexpected.
