8/10 Good
"The staff was super nice at checkin. The furnishings in the lobby and room were IKEA like. My room had a cutout for the elevator, so I think it was a bit smaller, but I heard no noise. The bathroom and water closet were 2 rooms, both quite small. The bed was nice and the Air conditioning worked well. Everything appeared clean, but there were spiderwebs on the ceiling. The has a cold water dispenser and a locked storage facility for luggage that was very nice. Their front desk is always open."

"The hotel is a smaller boutique style building a very safe neighborhood. It has several metro stations nearby and from outside you can the Eifel Tower. There are many seasonably priced cafes and restaurants around the hotel. It is nice, clean, and safe. The staff is welcoming, breakfast was good, and everything was clean. I will stay here again and recommend it to my friends and family."
