    No "Do Not Disturb" signs for the door. We'd prefer to have the option not to have our room cleaned everyday. A mini fridge would have made this hotel perfect. No aircon for summer months.

    Very friendly and helpful reception staff - all of them! Gave us an upgraded room for our long stay. Very clean rooms and bathroom. Location was very close to Metro, grocery stores, and restaurants. Quiet and safe street. The in-room and in-bathroom heaters work well for the cold weather.

    Amazing friendly and great staff. We arrived late at night after a long journey, we were greeted with kind words and humor, and our mood immediately improved!😊😊 The rooms are cleaned every day, the hotel is clean and comfortable. There is a kettle and tea in the room. The location of the hotel is excellent from the Charonne metro station, just a 2-minute walk. I liked that there are many restaurants and bakeries nearby. This area seemed safe and good to me. You can have breakfast at the hotel for 13 euros (croissants, boiled eggs, cheese, tea, coffee, sweets...) I had breakfast at the hotel for the first three days. But I lacked cooked food and some vegetables, so I found breakfast in restaurants near the hotel. I love this place. I will be happy to return to this hotel on my next visit to Paris

    The shower was poor and the rooms are very clinical. But in fairness, you know this when booking and it's very clean and the rooms are spacious.

    It's a great place to stay if you're looking for something cheap, in a perfectly fine location and with a comfy enough bed to sleep in. The shower is pretty poor - always a bug bear of mine - but we needed something at good value as we were only in Paris for a night and wanted to spend our money on a good meal. Perfect place for a couple of people to crash.

    Some minor scratches in the bath tub and an infiltration spot on the wall show the hotel oldness, can be repaired/eliminated. Some vegetables at the breakfast would be appreciated.

    Hotel is very close to the Charonne metro station, Carrefour city shop at the corner, many bakeries for any type of breakfast or a snack, many restaurants, very close (10 min walk) to Nation station (main point of transfer for metro, RER -also for Disneyland, bus for airport). The room was big enough for 2 people, quiet, with a very comfortable bed & 2 pillows each (for any preference), air heating for manual setting at your disposal (also in the bathroom) so it was exactly what we set as per our needs, water heating facilities for a tea/coffee (excellent when you came in after walking all day in a cold weather or just want to relax), very clean towels and sheets, bed is arranged daily, towels and sheets changed after 2 days, bathroom cleaned daily. The breakfast is acceptable, the place is nice and have a small terrace (looks nice but we didn't had a good weather to see it open).

    The front desk staff, which changed often, were not very welcoming or, in some instances, never even acknowledged our existence.

    The location was close to the metro and lots of restaurants and grocery stores.

    There was a small stain on one of the bed sheets. The wooden furniture is chipping and coming apart. Could do with another socket next to the bed. There is no ‘do not disturb’ sign to hang on the door, so beds are made every day whether you like it or not. There is a large hole behind the toilet at the bottom, which could do with some repair. There was no plug for the bath. The hotel in general could do with a bit of an upgrade.

    The location is superb. It’s very close to the metro station Charonne. There is a supermarket around the corner and a couple of bakeries as well. The hotel itself looks very simple from the outside and inside. Checking in is very easy to do and you’ll get a keycard to use. The room (101) itself is spacious enough for 2 people, has 2 single beds, coffee/tea making facilities, a wardrobe, towels and linen, a safe, a suitcase stand and a bath with a shower. Even though the room is on the street side, there is not a lot of noise except for sometimes you can hear the rubbish trucks outside, but that doesn’t last that long and is not that annoying. The beds are made every day, wether you like it or not (which is a good and a bad thing, that’s why I mentioned it for both). Towels are changed when you leave them in the bath. If you don’t want/need them changed, just hang them up on the hook.

    Nothing really, but it would be preferable to have more sockets in the room.

    Except the shower cabin which is tiny, everything is good. My room looks to the nice backyard and thus is quiet.
