For the price, this is not a bad place. Though it can be somewhat difficult to communicate if you do not speak Mandarin or French. The host speaks a bit English, but not very well. The place is filled with Mandarin speaking tenants, mixed with females and males. During my stay, the room was very hot and I was sweaty every night. Not sure if it was because I was in Paris or the room was just hot. There were noises throughout the night as there were barbers, shops, and restaurants in the alley where the house is located. But it is definitely a very convenient location right by the train station.
