The hotel exudes an old Paris charm with a comfortable bed and nice facilities, but the tiny wardrobe in the mezzanine area could be a bit impractical. The friendly personal service adds to the overall cozy atmosphere, making it a delightful stay.

The hotel is in a bustling area, conveniently located between two metro stations and near the center, making it easy to explore the city. The rooms were cozy with twin beds, but the tables were not kept clean, and there was limited space to move around the furniture. The service was fantastic with friendly staff always ready to assist. The dining options included lovely pad thai, but unfortunately, there were absolutely no vegan choices. Overall, a decent place with some minor drawbacks.
