Rooms on upper floors (especially 5–6) with balconies offer partial or full Eiffel Tower views; some rooms overlook quiet side streets, others face busier Rue de Ponthieu

Bed & mattress

Beds described as exceptionally comfortable, firm mattresses with high-quality pillows and soft sheets; some guests noted sheets as slightly scratchy

Bathroom & water

Modern renovated bathrooms with excellent hot water pressure; large deep soaking tubs; limited counter space; only partial glass shower doors allowing water spillage onto bathroom floor

Wi-Fi

Free WiFi available; speed generally adequate but sometimes slow or patchy (varies by room); some guests report blocked access to certain sites

Breakfast

Excellent quality and worth the add-on cost; extensive hot and cold items daily including fresh pastries, made-to-order eggs, quality meats, cheeses, fruits, and exceptional coffee

AC / heating

No air conditioning; heating system lacks individual room control; rooms reported as overheating in summer; opening windows brings in street noise

Elevator

Unreliable

Local knowledge

Request a room away from the street (Rue de Ponthieu side) to minimize traffic noise; avoid ground floor

Elevator only reaches floor 5; rooms on floor 6 require stairs with luggage

Book the 'Comfort' or 'Superior' room category for better soundproofing and balconies with views
