I stayed in a hotel located on a busy lane, which was very noisy at night due to nearby bars and a cinema. The rooms on the 5th floor could use a makeover but were suitable for two people.
Rooms

The room I stayed in was on the 5th floor. It could definitely use a general makeover, but it was fine for two people. The noise from the lane outside was intense at night due to the presence of drunks and the bar across the road.
Service

The service was good overall. The staff were friendly and kind to my 9-year-old granddaughter. However, at times, they seemed too engrossed in their interactions with each other instead of focusing on attending to guests.
Location

The location of the hotel was great, especially for exploring St Germain, St Michel, Notre Dame, and the Latin Quarter. There were plenty of cafes, bakeries, and markets nearby, making it convenient for visitors. It was also within walking distance of major Paris attractions.
Dining
6.0
The dining options were minimal during my stay, with a highlight being freshly cooked croissants. However, the variety was limited, and some items didn't feel very fresh. The breakfast had very little variety, offering mostly pastries, meat, cheese, cereal, along with excellent coffee and orange juice.

The hotel's dining offerings were somewhat limited, but the freshly cooked croissants were a delightful touch. However, the overall variety of food was lacking, and the freshness of some items was questionable.

The hotel is in a prime location in the Latin Quarter, near iconic landmarks, and surrounded by convenient amenities. The rooms are basic but suitable for a short stay while the service is friendly, although a bit too insistent with personal documents. The dining options are average, and the hotel lacks standout facilities, but overall it offers good value for money.

This hotel is a gem in the heart of the city. The location is superb, surrounded by major attractions and excellent transport links. The room was well-equipped, offering all necessary facilities but lacked some 3-star standards. The service was a mix of great assistance and a few hiccups in customer service. The dining experience ranged from lovely fresh offerings to average. The facilities were adequate for a comfortable stay.

The hotel is located in the heart of the Latin Quarter, making it convenient to explore Paris, with easy access to the Metro and RER B line to the airport. The rooms were a bit warm during the night, and having three separate beds for our adult children felt a bit tight. The location is fantastic for those who want to be centrally located without spending much time on transportation.
