The location was extremely good. No more than 10 minutes from Montparnasse Railway station and about 2 minutes to the nearest metro station. There always seemed to be a pleasant and helpful person on reception and they advertise that reception is open 24/7. We had help with our bags to and from our room and our bags stored after check out until we left Paris later in the day. Although the area could be described as 'lively', my daughter and I felt perfectly safe. For a hotel in central Paris, the price was extremely good and everything was spotlessly clean and comfortable. I would not hesitate to stay again.

This is an old, narrow townhouse with, I should think, little room for an elevator but, oh my goodness, the stairs! Fit, young things, with a back pack, would find little problem but older, less agile customers, with a suitcase might struggle. I am relieved that I was not on the top floor! However, the reception staff were happy to help with our bags without us having to ask. I had read other reviews which said that there were no disposable cups to drink from in the room and that it was difficult to get a bottle under the tap. This would be a bit of a problem if arriving hot, tired and thirsty - just make sure you have bottles of water with you.

This is a small, simple and cosy hotel which has been newly renovated and the rooms look exactly as in the pictures here. I had a single room on the third floor, it was small (especially the bathroom) but fine for me. The hotel is located in a busy part of the city but it was not noisy at night. There are many restaurants and shops around, the Gare Montparnasse is less than 10 minutes walk and all the places in Paris can easily be reached by public transport (one of the metro stops is 20 metres from the hotel). Wifi worked very well and the young guys working at the reception, especially the one checking me in, were very kind. There is no breakfast served at the hotel but there are bakeries and coffees around. Overall, I was very happy with my choice of the hotel in Paris and I would not hesitate to return.

There is an unpleasant noise coming from (most likely) air conditioning in the courtyard. Fortunately, it stops in the evening.

Very central - only 5 minutes walk to Gare Montparnasse but really quiet despite being in a busy area. Room very clean with really comfortable bed. Staff very friendly and helpful.

A fan in the room would have been good as it was a warm night and maybe a facility to make tea and coffee. Up lots of stairs to our room and no lift.

Clean, very nice decor and bed, right outside metro, bus to the centre, obviously the Montparnasse station, walking distance to great restos, staff were very nice.

Can hear your neighbours very well, even if they're not being noisy

Lots of bars and restaurants nearby, and handy for metro and other transport. Friendly, helpful staff, with 24 hr receptionist. Big, comfortable bed, good toilet/shower and recently updated.

There was no a/c or fridge in the room, and the building (4 floors) has no lift. The local area is mixed, varying from "posh shops" to "a bit seedy".

Great location, recently renovated (hence the old bad rating on google map), small room but clean, comfy and cheap, especially for the location. Ideal for 1 or 2 night while in transit. I was very satisfied with my stay.

Everything was very new in the room And very clean. and the staff are very polite and helpful.

There was no air conditioning in the room and it was extremely hot and due to the noise from the street it was not comfortable at all sleep with the window open. And there was no iron in the hotel.

Perfect location at Montparnasse Clean and newly renovated

No elevator, small room, need to leave the key at reception when leaving, not allowed to eat inside, thin walls- all a bit of a classic for Parisian hotel infrastructure, but all in all a decent budget option)
