Room was laughably not as described. The room booked for a quad was so tight and small, there was barely any room for four people to stand or their suitcases to be opened. The beds were tiny and cracks in the ceiling. When I upgraded the room to an 8 person, in the new room, there was some unusual substance (gross) sprayed all over the curtain.
Cest un bel hôtel qui n’est malheureusement pas entretenu et qui a besoin de nombreux petits travaux d’entretien.
Le ménage n’est pas fait quotidiennement.
Très belle chambre, spacieuse mais manque d’entretien.
Le personnel est très agréable, efficace et sympathique.
My room windows could not open to admit fresh air. With up to six sweaty bodies, some drenched in competing cologne fragrances, the room always smelled of animal musk. Not great for those averse or allergic to perfumes. Clean up you air.
When I checkin in the morning the heater not work and it was freezing inside the room. The other roomate told the receptionist the night before but they hadn't fixed it until the evening of my checkin. Anyway they let me checkin early so I gave 3 stars.
Decent hotel. Nothing fancy. But fine. Bit out the way of Paris centre, but metro station just across the road from hotel. Area outside busy, but safe. Shops and restaurants close by. Room was clean enough. Beds quite comfy. Shower quite poor tho. Either freezing cold or roasting hot. Food at hotel okay. Choose hotel as it was a cheaper option for us, get what you pay for. Wouldn’t rush back but would recommend.

La réception était débordée et très lent le service. Pas d’eau chaude à la chambre, pas de chauffage à la salle à manger
It’s kind of a nostalgic visit for me. There are so many great memories from here. From walking the sunset at night on the roof top to partying downstairs. And the staff is amazing.
For the price, in Paris, it’s well worth any inconvenience. Best part was a good locker room, for a fee.
My biggest complaint is that there is no kitchen for guests. There’s a restaurant on site where you must purchase food, and you’re not allowed to bring your own food into the building unless you eat it in the *smoking courtyard* (even when the restaurant kitchen is closed). There are very few restaurants open late in the neighborhood. I was hungry at 10pm after traveling halfway around the world and was told to sit and eat my take away in a smoky courtyard. Hated it.
Upon arrival the staff were nice and they have an area to leave your luggage if you arrive before check in time. However we had two rooms and they were awful, broken shower doors, broken switches, broken headboards, lights not working, windows don’t shut all the way, super noisy especially if you’re on the front side of the hotel by main road, doesn’t feel safe either as soon as you step outside the doors of the hotel. Staff were nice throughout the stay but the hotel was awful
A primary staff member at the desk, white man with thin brown hair and a beard tried to double charge me for a towel and denied me a room change when the AC broke (yet someone else gave me the room instantly.) He said there weren’t any left which was a lie because the next time I asked a woman gave me a choice of 3 spots. Watch out for him! He was also rude and unhelpful to my friends as well.
