The room is actually a part of an old hotel. A compact room with a double bed and a small table and chair and a private bathroom. Very basic but clean. No fan or Ac though I didn't require either even in the thick of summer as there was a always a cool breeze blowing.
What I liked was the location. It is situated in the 9th district, close to Moulin Rouge as well as Sacré Coeur Basilica which is a must visit. The streets are cobble stoned and lined with typical parisan style buildings. The entire area has a very vintage look but a youthful vibe. You will find a lot of young people on the streets and spread across the many wine and dine joints revelling till the wee hours of the morning (though the kitchens close by 1am). Despite that, if you are in need of food post 1am, you can walk along the area and you will find a department store or two open at this time! If you go even further down towards Moulin Rouge, you may find small kebab and panini outlets too that are open late into the night. In true parisan style, you have a tiny balcony attached to your room that has a table and two chairs and overlooks the street outside. To sum up,
1. The room is suited for singles or couples.
2. A small, no-frills room so don't expect too much. Very basic but neat and tidy. Wifi available with good speed.
3. Walking distance from Abssess Metro Station. Area is littered with places to eat. Outside the metro station, you can find all sorts of convenience stores, internet cafes, mobile shops, etc.
4. Booking was confirmed quickly. I booked the evening prior to my arrival in paris and it was confirmed within minutes. The Host was prompt in replying to my messages.
5. Strict about check out time so keep that in mind.
6. Kettle provided but no provision for tea-coffee.
7. A set of towels and soap are provided in the bathroom.
8. No fan or Air conditioning but the room was airy.
9. The reception staff does not speak much english but is friendly and helpful.
