Basic, but comfortable rooms in a convenient location. Rooms have decent AC. For Americans used to US-style hotels, the room was more basic, dated, and small than US norms, but above average for French/Parisian hotels (and I've stayed in many). The street and neighborhood are pretty residential so it's also quieter than many tourist-dominated sites. What really sets the hotel apart is its excellent staff--friendly, helpful, accessible. I was also able to get into my room early after an overnight flight, which was greatly appreciated. Excellent breakfast for 10 Euros. I plan to reserve again next time I'm in Paris.
