We had stayed at this hotel based on the raves seen here and we were quite disappointed. The one picture and the raves make it seem like this is the best bargain in Paris. Yes, it has a great rate of 87E per night, but thats about it...and I would say thats the only thing great at this hotel. Picture driving on a US interstate and needing to stop at the motel on the side of the road. Thats this.
The room was small and dreary. The walls are in major need of paint or repapering. The window didn't shut completely this there was draft. Luckily, we were facing the courtyard so we weren't getting the noise from the street. The bed was flimsy and the comforter musty and I would recommend that for a couple (if you MUST stay here due to budget restrictions) get the room with 2 twin beds which seemed nicer after we peeked in. We were in Room #121. The bathroom was very small and the shower is big enough for a child. I am a slim guy and had trouble. Plus the show head faces the wrong direction, so be prepared to flood the bathroom. The shower itself was moldy.
Overall, the ONLY reason to stay here is because it's inexpensive shelter. They have heat and hot water and it's relatively clean. It's no Four Seasons.

Rooms are small but nice and clean. Great location, beside Arc de Triomphe and the Champs Elysee. The staff were fantastic, really nice and very helpful. I will without a doubt stay in this hotel the next time I visit Paris.

I stayed in this hotel in January 2006 for 3 nights. It's a really really small hotel but it is comfortable, quiet and the staff are very friendly and helpful. It is so near everything and i would definitely recommend it

I have stayed at this hotel a number of times. It is a very very small hotel but clean and it could not have a better location! LOCATION LOCATION LOCATION is Excellent! If it's just a bed you need with Paris at your doorstep this is the place to go. If it's luxury you are after then it's not! I will deff go back there! Normally prices are approx 80-90 euro per room per night! Sinead.... IRELAND!
