3 star hotel with mediocre accomodations
Pros:

The staff was great, super location, very clean.

Cons:

We had a 'comfort' room which was very small- almost claustrophobic. Very small bathroom. Extra tiny lift.

Pros:

La gentillesse du personnel . Le petit déjeuner avec les croissants français et le fromage.. parfait. La proximité, c'est le Top, tout est à côté pour un séjour touristique.

Cons:

Les chambres ne sont pas spacieuses, mais très normales dans le quartier latin vu la proximité.
