If you can manage to survive with your couple in aprox 6-8 sqm, if you don{t need an AC even with temperatures of 30+ degrees, if a couch bed allows you to rest, if you don{t mind to have a room on a very noisy street...this place may be an option to you....positive things: well located, friendly staff, clean....but surely for that money you can get a more decent experience...we stayed 6 days (only because room was pre-paid) but we seriously looked for another (even having to pay twice - but nothing reasonable was available). Probably if you are single and all you need is a place where to leave your stuff during the day, and you can get a room looking to the back patio....it may ( I said may) help you

My daughter and I stayed at the hotel for 3 nights in August and the 2 Receptionist Josephine and Mattew were extremely friendly & helpful to provide us with all the info we requested about getting around, where to eat . They spoke good English.

The room was very clean & comfortable for 2 persons altho we had 2 sofa beds.
The kitchen was very well equipped, the bath was big by Paris hotel standard.

The location is very strategic with the Metro station is just 2 doors away , Gare Montparnasse is just a 5 min away when we had to catch a train to Lourdes.

There are many cafe around and a Supermarket is just a few doors away.

We had really enjoyed our stay there esp the hospitality of the Receptionist Josephine and Mattew made our stay more pleasant.

My husband and I stayed 8 nights at citadines maine montparnasse. I've been to this appart'hotel before (in 2000), and at that time, the appartment were beautiful and very comfy and had all you needed (little kitchen, nice little table, etc.) but I didn't know how the rooms would be now in 2008. So before booking, I read the reviews in tripadvisor and frankly, I got a little scared but i took the risk and wanted to believe that the good experience i had in 2000 would repeat itself. So i booked a 2 person studio with a sofa bed. At our arrival, my husband and I were given a court view room which was quiet and had a nice view (you could see the panthéon). The decoration of the room is a little "old", not very modern. The carpet is a little too colorful but overall, the room had space. The bathroom was OK. Feels at home, you can buy food and warm it it in the microwave. Good alternative when you don't want to spend 50 euros on a meal! It's comfy but not luxury. It's a hotel for people who wanna have a comfy appartment in Paris, WELL LOCATED (you can come back at 2 am very safely!). But it's not a hotel for people who want luxury rooms and room service! It bothered me to have to pay 7 euros to change the towels!!! I'd rather pay a little more for a hotel room and have my towels changed everyday and have my room cleaned everyday! Here, not the case. Overall, it's OK. Not superb, but well enough for the price. I don't know if I would go again. I liked it better in 2000.

The hotel was very nice. Very good facilities if you want an inexpensive stay in Paris (your own cooker, pots, pans, cuttlery, TV, Stereo). Near to Montparnasse and Geite Metro station.
Room is only cleaned once a week but there are laundry facilities on site. Room was a bit small but cosy. However, it was clean and had everything you wanted for a short stay!
I would most defintely go back!
