The staff were nice and the location is great
The bathroom full of black mould. The previous guests used soap for the shower was still in the bathroom. We let reception know and asked if they could clean the bathroom which they did but the walls, ceiling and shower was still covered in black mould. The door to the bathroom also wouldn't shut and there was no lock.The walls are thin and there is no soundproofing so it can be very noisy.
The hotel delivers what it promises. It’s an older hotel, but it’s pleasant and well located, not too far from the main tourist areas. The neighborhood is also very safe. The reception staff were very kind and allowed us to leave our luggage there while we walked around the city, since our bus was only in the evening. I would definitely stay there again if I go back to Paris!
The hotel was exactly as shown in the photos. It is a small and charming hotel, and the staff were very kind, polite, and helpful.The hair dryer in the room was not working, but after informing the reception, they brought a replacement, which we appreciated.
However, the room was very old, and the bathroom door could not be locked from the inside, which was inconvenient.
Cheap. Good location - a long walk down St. Antoine to the Rue di Rivoli gets you to the museums and the gardens. Friendly staff (English-speaking).
Shower, but no real shower booth - quite awkward to use. My room could've used a draught excluder.
Very good and cosy hotel, not far from city center. Polite and helpful personel, rich and diverse breakfast.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this charming little hotel. The family room was great, the kids loved their separate Loft bedroom, and the room was cosy, charming and extremely spacious for a Parisian hotel. The staff were wonderful, and Mr Morel went above and beyond to accomodate our family. The hotel is superbly located in the heart of Nation. Only 2 minute walk to the metro and buses. it is a great area! We highly recommed this lovely little hotel.
The location was excellent and very convenient off of the Nation metro stop. The staff were also very friendly and helpful. The bed appeared to be clean and was fairly comfortable. The room was also pretty quiet, which I asked for and was nice.
I paid a LOT of money for 2 nights, so the value was very, very poor for what I recieved. The room was quite small. The shower was dirty and had the pink slime in all of the corners and I did not want to even stand in it. They only had a combination body wash and shampoo (no conditioner). Also the bed only had one small pillow. Also, the front door appeared to be broken.
The room was quite spacious and very clean.
The shower was a little hard to manage without a shower curtain.
Great location , next to a major metro station. Clean and spacious room and friendly staff.
Limited space to hang your clothes, although the room is huge. A minor renovation is needed.
Clean ,great area, super staff
Continental breakfast was good. French bread, toaster, croissants, cheese, a selection of teas, juices.
The bathroom was not in a good state. But I could take a shower which is the main point
Hotel staff is friendly and helpful. Location is close to a metro station and in about 20 minutes you can get to the city center for sightseeing.
If you can, put 20 Euros per night more into your budget and get something better. The room is very worn down and most things do not work. Internet/WLAN unusable, TV does not work, water very slow, room safe broken, etc. The whole interior is basically random stuff collected from a flee market. The biggest joke is the heating radiator fixed with some rope and a clamp to the ceiling in order to prevent it from falling off the wall ... see pictures :)))
Localisation, clean, kind
Isolation. Need some restoration
I would never recommend this...
1. I had to take an almost cold shower twice — yesterday evening and this morning.2. The shower door would not open. I had to spend about half an hour just trying to get out of the bathroom.3. The mattress was either very old or broken: I kept sliding off it onto the floor.4. Regarding compensation: The hotel owner only offered €20 and gave me to sign a paper confirming I received a discount, without providing me a copy of the document. The money was inserted on this paper. He then said: “If you don’t like it, complain to booking.com.”This is a very important point to take into account: the rude attitude of the management is also part of the complaint.
good location. We had access to all metro lines, and it was only a 5–7 minute walk to Nation Station. We were also able to leave our luggage both at check-in and check-out, which was very convenient.
The water pressure is low, and the room is very small.
Friendly staff & Location is excellent for main line trains & metro. Good choice of bars & eateries on your door step including a great patisserie and market on Saturday!
Good location
Although there was an elevator, when we reached our room there was a rather steep staircase to reach the bedroom and there was a lot of bird droppings on window and ledge.
