This was a great find - a 3-star hotel in a residential area with great customer service.
We arrived on a late afternoon and were warmly greeted by the front desk person. While our actual room was not ready upon arrival, they gave us an adequate room for the evening and then the rest of our 10-night stay was in a nice, large, modernly-upgraded room with a nice city view. The bathroom still looked like it could use a modern touch, but the room was very impressive. Our stay was during the winter and the temperature inside the room was around 75 - it was nice and toasty...to cool it down, we just opened the large windows and it really wasn't a big deal. The location was great - a 15 minute walk to Arch de Triumph and a 20 minute walk to Montmartre. This is not at all a touristy area, which I definitely appreciate - you could really feel like a Parisian. It's very close (a 2 minute walk) to the "Rome" Metro station and there are grocery stores, bakeries and restaurants all within walking distance from the hotel. The customer service was excellent and all staff members were friendly and spoke English, which made everything much easier for our vacation.
If you are looking for a great hotel experience, this is a very good choice. The price point was very nice too - although it was during the low-season in late November-early December, our room was only about $100(USD)/night - what a deal! Breakfast was also available (not included in the cost of the room), but we never ate there since there were so many bakeries close-by. They were renovating the hotel during the day so we did hear some pounding and knocking, but it was always pleasant during the morning and evening and I never felt it was a bother.
