Centrally located on the Left Bank among lots of charming shops and restaurants, and within easy walking / biking / Metro distance of all the major attractions of the city. While the staff is friendly and conscientious, and puts in the effort to keep the hotel in good repair and clean, the more permanant furnishings that are not cleaned and replaced daily, like the blankets, decorative cushions, curtains, carpets, etc. have an unpleasant patina of funk and grime that moves this hotel from "Charming" down to "Slightly Icky". An investment in new decorative cushions and blankets, and a thorough cleaning of the carpets and curtains would transform this little hotel significantly and make it a place worth returning to.
