Frustrating
Pros:

The hotel is really old but situated in a good area. The staff was helpful and nice.

Cons:

The accomodation is very expensive for what it offered. The room does not have a TV, a fridge nor a bathroom. There is only a shared bathroom and you have to pay 2.50 euros for a 5 minutes shower, which is very frustrarting. Not even in a poor hostel you have to limit your time foe a shower. This is unacceptable for a hotel in Paris.
