This hotel is truly not a good place to sleep. The room temperature is controlled by the staff. The room we were given faced a street with a nightclub that OPENED AT MIDNIGHT & did not close until 8AM. The bed had a waterproof mattress cover made of plastic that made it like sleeping in a sauna. Spend your money elsewhere.

isappointing Stay – Significant Difference Between Advertised and Actual Room We booked a Club Double Room based on the photos shown by the hotel on Booking.com. I have attached a screenshot of the room photo shown on Booking.com at the time of booking, together with a photo of the actual room we were given. The difference in appearance and overall standard is significant. 1. Room and handling of the complaint When I raised the discrepancy with the front desk, the staff member explained that “photos are just photos,” that the actual room might not be the one shown, and that not all photos on Booking.com represented the room we would receive. I explained that this was not simply a minor difference in layout or decoration, but a substantial difference in the overall level of the room. During the conversation, the staff member repeatedly interrupted me and told me “one minute” while I was trying to explain the issue. When I said I wanted to check out, I was told that I would not receive a refund and that the staff member could not make that decision. No alternative solution was offered at the time. 2. Hair dryer and other room issues On the first night, I requested a hair dryer. The front desk initially gave me an iron and then said they could not find a hair dryer. Another staff member provided a hair dryer the following morning, and it worked. The room also faced the street and was quite noisy. The door lock periodically produced a noticeable vibration, and the mini-fridge made a persistent low-frequency humming noise. 3. Positive aspects The bathroom was new, relatively clean, and well maintained, although small. Breakfast had a limited selection, but the food was good and fresh coffee was available. Most of the hotel staff were friendly. Overall The main issue was the significant difference between the Club Double Room shown in the Booking.com photos and the room we actually received. The attached photos provide a direct comparison for future guests. I would recommend that guests booking this room type confirm exactly which room and which photos correspond to their reservation before arrival. While there were some positive aspects to the stay, the discrepancy in the room and the way the complaint was handled did not meet my expectations.

I stayed for two nights, but I wasn’t satisfied at all. First of all, the hotel is very small and falls far short of what you’d expect from a boutique hotel. The furnishings in the rooms are old, and the bed was very uncomfortable. There were no disposable slippers provided in the room, so it was very difficult to move around. Also, the showerhead in the bathroom was incredibly bad. The water pressure is so strong that it’s impossible to stand under it. The only good thing is the location, but unfortunately everything else falls below standard.

Breakfast fantastic, plenty of choice, staff attentive, polite and speaks English. Bedding and towels changed everyday. Clean and tidy. In walking distance to the Monpanass tower and the Gare train station.

The room is not well maintained and many things are fallen apart. Hygiene of the room is generally ok, and the bed is comfortable. But for such price you should have a better choice.

If you want to stay somewhere across the street from an ALL NIGHT RAVE blasting music, this is the place. Worst stay possible. The room was like a sweat box & they have plastic mattress covers so enjoy trying to sleep.
