This is a much more memorable space than a chain-hotel room. That might give you air-conditioning in hot weather; this will give you exposed wood beams in the ceiling, a room that follows the angle of the street, Parisian architecture, a wonderful neighbourhood full of little restaurants and brasseries, and a short walk to the Pantheon, to the shopping of rue Mouffetard or Boulevard St. Germain (depending on your preferences), to Notre-Dame Cathedral, or to Shakespeare and Company. The bed is good and there's a Nespresso coffee maker in the little kitchenette.
