I don’t know if I would stay there again.
Pros:

The location and staff were very helpful and friendly.

Cons:

The room was very small, but that is typical for Paris. This is personal opinion but the TV had limited channels that were completely in French(no satellite/streaming). No amenities.

Good Hotel in excellent location.
Pros:

Breakfast was excellent; good range on the buffet and regularly topped up. Location was very good - plenty of cafes, bars and restaurants nearby and also small supermarkets. 5 min walk to Jussieu metro and opposite the very pleasant Jardin des Plantes. Easy walk to Notre Dame. Room clean and quiet apart from one night when we were awakened by loud noises and voices from (presumably) other guests in the Hotel. Air conditioning worked well; also WIFI and television.

Cons:

Information in the room telling us how to ring the Reception on the one disturbed night we had.

Less cushy than imagined but quiet and cool -- good for a short stay.
Pros:

The air conditioning was essential and worked pretty well, considering the heat wave we encountered. The hotel is on a quiet street, right across from an entrance to the Jardin des Plantes which would be great location if the heat made picnicking attractive at all -- as it was we preferred our a/c. Small room for the price, but this is central Paris! The check in was fine if not very welcoming. I think everyone was just overwhelmed by the heat. Very good breakfast in the basement.

Cons:

The elevator was so tiny that two people and their luggage were too much for it --but we were glad to have it! If there was a rooftop area we were not informed of it. The pictures of it look appealing but we didn't see it.

Survivable
Pros:

During the hottest days in Paris A/C was working excellent. Location is great. Staff is good. everything else is mediocre.

Cons:

Size of the place. You have to live from the suitcase. Not a single shelf for closing, just 4 hangers. we were prepared for small rooms in Paris, but this is extreme.

Neat and tidy hotel with very good a/c
Pros:

Just a 1 night stay but perfect location for the event I was attending. A huge bonus in the heatwave … air con that is actually cold and you can control the temp yourself. Staff were nice and room was clean and tidy, albeit very compact. Proper blackout curtains, yay.

Cons:

Clanging noises in the ceiling that went on but fortunately didn’t keep me awake. I think it’s the aircon, but I didn’t care - the room was cool.

Bom custo benefício
Pros:

A localização do hotel é excelente, fica bem próximo do metrô, tem todos os recursos a volta como supermercados e restaurantes. O café da manhã é bom, tem frutas, pães, fiambres e queijos de qualidade. O quarto deixa um pouco a desejar por ser muito pequeno, mas tem ar condicionado, o que é bem importante. Falta uma TV Smart. Ninguém vai a Paris para ficar vendo TV, mas a noite seria bom poder relaxar assistindo um filme ou série no idioma do hóspede. O hotel é todo compacto. O elevador é para duas pessoas e o espaço do café da manhã é bem pequeno e nos horários de pico é preciso esperar mesa.

Cons:

Não tem nada que eu não tenha gostado, tudo estava ok, mas o hotel também não surpreende em nada.

Pros:

Comfortable rooms and great location

Cons:

I liked everything but would have liked other bread options for breakfast--a nice country bread or whole grain or baguette. But the fresh fruit was great!
