If you are a tourist who spends all day out exploring and think of your hotel room as just the place to sleep, take a shower and then head back out for another day of adventure, then this hotel fits the bill.
Yes, the rooms are small. But standard rooms are small all over Europe. This is the norm so we expected the small room. Again, sleep, shower and leave is what we do so size didn't bother us.
The lovely lady at the reception desk was extremely helpful to us with reservations, directions and more. Very nice and we really appreciated her.
The breakfast was typical of most - boiled eggs, toast, breads, crossiants, yogurt, cereals, etc. A perfect way to have a free meal to start your day so you can spend more $$$ on lunches and dinners in nice cafes and bistros. The only issue we had is that every day we had to wait on dishes. Either bowls or coffee cups were always out. They really should either get more dishes or the staff should keep up with washing and bringing more out quickly. Sometimes we were the only 2 people there and there would still be no coffee cups.
We found our room to be very clean and the maid service was fine. The elevator was great since we have stayed in similar smaller htoels in europe where we had to carry our bags up the stairs.
As others have said, the location is really what this is all about. It's excellent! 15 minute walk to Notre Dame and the River. Once there you can navigate to anywhere else you'd want to see. We walked everywhere from this hotel, but we do walk a lot.
It is a noisy road, but with our window closed we didn't notice it very much. We've already decided that we'll be staying at this hotel again for our next trip.
