Economical hotel in GREAT LOCATION...

Liked: For the price during June busy season, you get a great location and the room was to be expected; small like many rooms in Paris but it was very quiet and it had a window that I was able to climb out of and enjoy the night breeze, very nice! As mentioned, the location is only a few minutes--max!--from the entrance of Pigalle metro if you get off on correct side, and there is serious nightlife if you like that down the street! Moulan Rouge is only 3 bloocks away. Some may not want to be in such a zone but it was quite interesting seeing that part of Paris for first time. Montemarte is only a five min walk up the hill, so great location in my opinion.As for the room, SMALL is the only way to describe it. Bathroom has everything but again, small. I've come to expect every room priced in economical range (in Paris) to be small so I was not surprised, but take note of this if you prefer rooms with more space. I was able to get my bag and backpack in with the desk/chair and bed and tight walking space, that is it. Bathroom is meant for JUST ONE PERSON, shower as well. It was clean and bed was a bit softer than I prefer but it was comfortable. It has a fan but I didn't need it, TV as well.Overall, I have no complaints and would go back next time I'm in Paris.
Disliked: It does NOT have an elevator! So if you travel heavy, be ready to walk your things up.

Pleasant

Liked: The hotel was on a quiet street yet the rest of Paris was easily accessible from there.
Disliked: The 5 flights of the spiral staircase are a killer. Especially with overnight bags or suitcases.By the time we had got to the top of the stairs suitcases in hand, we had forgotten which room number we were in. Looking at the plastic fob we entered a room with what we thought was the right one as it was already open. It wasn't until we had unpacked and ready to go out and explore that we discovered the key fob insert had slipped forward and obscured the full number. We were in the wrong room. 01 not 04. The door had now completely closed and our things inside.The concierge was bewildered to how we ended up in the wrong room. He seemed to think that we actually wanted this in preference to the one we booked but ended up being allowed to stay in this room.I can only base my feedback on the room we ended up with. It was nothing like any of the photos. I assumed that it was used for staff or something. However it was clean and tidy.

OK for a budget stay

Liked: Very clean. Good location.
Disliked: The walls are thin, so you can hear everything—TV noise, conversations on the phone, people walking up and down the stairs, and so on.

Great location and compact rooms.

Liked: Great location and communication prior to arrival. Be prepared for some steep stairs - our rooms were on the 4th floor with no elevator/lift. Rooms were small but fine size-wise. Facilities a little dated but more than comfortable. Staff on reception desk super-friendly and there 24hrs so you leave your room key on your way out for the day/evening. Overall, for the price, a great stay.
Disliked: Facilities a little dated but for the price and location was all good.
