Very nice hotel. Small and simple but had all the essentials and staff were friendly. Fantastic location - very close to a metro and a short walk from the seine. Lots of places to eat nearby and walking distance from attractions like Notre Dame and the Louvre. Definitely recommend :)

Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
Hotel is very old, it smells old, and everything in the room(s) were low budget & poor quality. The hotel “patio” was basically just a pass through to other rooms, not a place to spend time. It smelled like sewage in the patio area as well. Breakfast was underwhelming. The same offerings every day- a basket of croissants, eggs to poach (no other egg option), cheese and yogurt, cereal, and canned peaches/applesauce. A coffee machine, instant decaf and machine juices. Very institutionalized for a “quaint & historical hotel.” Most mornings, there was no room to sit down, and when I returned later, there was little food left. During my stay, I encountered different concierges- the first was nice, the second was fairly silent and non-engaging, and the third person was dismissive and rude. He acted annoyed when answering questions in French or English. Initially made reservation for a few nights, but stayed longer. When I called to see if the hotel had availability and to book it directly, I was told to use hotels.com, and that they couldn’t change the reservation on their end. They assured me they would have room, and would make a note on the reservation to assign me a room for all nights. I reminded them of this when I checked in and they said no problem. Then when the first few nights went by, I was made to repack my things, and move to another room, half the size of the room I booked.
