    Simple and clean but noisy Brioche Doree just up the street has very good and economical options for breakfast and lunch, so check it out, as most restaurants are a little pricey.

    + Very friendly and helpful staff. though hotel is quite old, and rooms rather small (but very comfortable!!!) cleanless is ok and facilities as well. the location is perfect and i would really recommend it for travellers who really want to disover one of the nicest cities in europe!!! - Price for breakfast, which is a bit expensive for coffee, juice and croissant.

    A budget three star that could do with a serious brush up, but the staff are extremely friendly, the location is great and if you're not paying too much then it's good value for money.

    Very disappointed I've stayed in so many Expedia hotels and been impressed. This one was terrible though. The lift had been out of action for months (the night desk man told me) after I was first told it had stopped working that day. I had to climb five flights of steep stairs to get to my room. The light in my room did not work and nor did the TV remote. Twice a day I reported these, twice a day I was promised action. Nothing ever happened. My room was tiny and poky. No kettle. The staff appear friendly but have no interest in putting things right. This is the worst hotel I have ever stayed in and I've stayed in many.

    Close to Sacre Coeur, Pigalle Lots of restaurants nearby, supermarket just up the street, a big plus, but closed on Sunday. Close to Pigalle Metro station, another really big plus. Sacre Coeur just up the hill, about a half-mile walk and spectacular views of Paris (facing the church, walk way to the left past the souvenir shop for a look at the Eiffel Tower) Facing the hotel, walk to the right and get into the neighborhood which is Montmarte. Charming! Restaurants and stores the tourists don't frequent.

    Not 3-Star at All Chose this hotel over nearby options because of the 3-star rating. That is a canard - this is not a 3-star hotel. Location is great, and the staff was friendly.

    + Location, Staff - the hairdryer was poor. The hotel was worn down. No luxery at all.

    + Rooms were very clean, though the interiors not first class. Anyway, staff was most friendly and everything was cleaned daily.
