4.1This hotel had everything we needed in Paris. A clean room with a clean bathroom, and a low price. Only one of the front desk workers communicated with us in English, but he was extremely helpful and provided us with all the information we needed. Very close to metro station Place d'Italie which connects to all major lines, and not far at all by foot to all major attractions in the 5eme arrondissement. Recommend taking a long walk down L'Avenue des Gobelins for a look at the food stalls and lovely restaurants! One caveat only - our room was extremely small (basically only big enough for a bed) which suited us fine, but if you are used to larger-more-American type rooms you might be disappointed. Also would not necessarily recommend breakfast as I think it is overpriced at 6 euro per person for granola and a croissant. Also, no deadbolt on door, and the maid walked in a few times while we were in there getting dressed. They ask you to leave the key whenever you leave the building, which was a bit odd at first but ended up being good since we weren't weighed down with extra items to carry!
Would recommend to a friend anytime!
