**A lovely stay, with a few things to improve**
The hotel has just been renovated, and overall, I had a genuinely pleasant stay.
The rooms are small, but this is Paris — I've certainly seen smaller ones!
The staff are a bit of a mixed bag: some don't speak English, while others are exceptionally warm, welcoming, and willing to go out of their way to help. What really stood out was the feeling of being a genuinely welcome guest. You could tell that the team cared and was doing its best to make the stay enjoyable.
And the bed! Absolutely wonderful, with incredibly comfortable pillows. I will genuinely miss them.
There are, however, a few things that need attention:
- **Shower:** The water was barely warm, and sometimes almost cold.
- **Bathroom door:** It opens inward, making it surprisingly difficult to get into such a small space. A sliding door would be a much more practical solution.
- **Drainage:** Every morning, there was a very strong, unpleasant smell coming from the bathroom drain.
- **Soundproofing:** The room's entrance door lets through virtually every sound from the corridor, making mornings quite noisy.
Overall, despite these issues, I left with a very positive impression, largely thanks to the warmth and genuine hospitality of the staff. With a few practical improvements, this could be a really lovely little hotel.
