Construction outside and singing under my window until 2, homeless people and pandhandlers close, a shower that didn’t seal water in so it flooded the floor, poor hallway lighting, cleaner who went into my room before checkout without knocking. It was a cute room and clean enough but I wouldn’t stay in this area again. If you are a student with a group it would be fine but not for the solo traveller.

We stayed here for five nights. We tried to get the hair dryer but it was always unavailable. The front desk told us that we need to wait til someone return it. We weren’t able to get the hair dryer at all during our stay. I think the property should prepare enough hair dryer in each room.

In the description of the property air conditioning is included, but the air in my room steadily ran and never cooled off. It was very hot. Only one window would open, so we couldn’t even get a nice breeze.

Jun 7, 2025

Stayed here in June 2025 with my son. There are hundreds of dead bugs inside the light fixture (picture included). The window is paper thin and you can hear all the noise from outside. Bring your own pillows and blankets they don’t provide much. The hotel itself is located in a lower income area, lots of young people and had the air of a party place, not the in did place to bring. Your family. No room cleaning. This is a 1.5 star hotel, really the bare minimum provided. The place seems more like a hostel than a hotel. Not a good place.

Cosy environment and friendly staff

Both the staff and my roommates were very courteous during my stay. A cosy environment and respectful and friendly staff. Suggestion: The food and beverage part can be made a little more affordable. I had a smooth and peaceful stay. I would prefer it again, thank you.

Getting a good shower here was really hard. The water was either too hot or not hot at all. Location was good, nice neighborhood and a few meters across from a metro station. There is an option to buy a 9.50 eur breakfast, but they do not mention the default breakfast menu is included ij the room rate and that the 9.50 price is for an extra toast with scrambled eggs and bacon, a crepe, or a croissant.

Good location just a short walk from Gare du Nord and close to Metro stations. Staff welcoming and friendly. Convenient to have lockers for luggage as we arrived before check in and could leave stuff there for the day after check out. Had a twin room with private bathroom. Spotlessly clean

Penelope, 2-night trip

May 3, 2025

elevators not working- understandable. but they closed a stairwell and only told you at the bottom, so you had to walk back up to exit. this can’t be safe for fire hazard reasons. €7.50 to rent a towel.. that should not be the case. the rooftop was also closed for a private event which was a main reason why I booked
