This is a cute, sassy place off the busy street of Paris.
We stayed here for about 4 nights. Receptionist speaks English so that's always a plus.
A couple of things to be aware of:
Cons -
The stairs are SUPER narrow.
walk ways are SUPER NARROW.
The space around the parameter of your bed is less than one foot.
The elevator can only fit 2 people.
The bedroom is smaller than a dorm.
Staff is useless when it comes to resources - I asked about the train and recommendations on places to eat. She (blonde) says to ask the train station and look around.
Some staff are approachable. This blonde one isn't approachable at all.
Everything is small and tight. Made for slim folks. If you're a person of size, this is your warning. The cleaning staff take out your belongings and leave it in the hall while they clean your room. It's that small!
We came in the fall time (October) and they shut off the AC (even tho they say AC is offered online - misleading).
Windows are nice with a cool breeze. However, the streets is LOUD at night. People yelling, chatting from 0000-0400 on a weekday, dump truck woke us up.
And neighbors smoke as well. So we wanted to shut the windows and turn on the AC for those reasons. If they want to save money on AC then give us a big discount since we're paying for the amenities!
Pro+++
Location is awesome.
It has your basic amenities: towels, hair dryer, soap.
Receptionist speaks English.
Modern decor.
Umbrella to use.
You can leave your luggage if you're too early for check in.
On the security list it showed that a charger (assuming international charger) and bathroom is available for use and if it's missing it'll cost 30Euro. I tried to clarify this with the front desk since we were missing these items initially and she looked at me like an idiot with a poker face stare: "If we don't give it to you, we don't charge you."
Well, that's why I wanted to clarify - sometimes housekeeping may missed restocking an item and you'll end up with the bill.
I feel like I'm better off staying at an AirBnB or Hostel. read more
