I stayed in November, so it was cold outside.
Pros:
1)It is a 10-minute walk away from the closest Metro/Bus station.
2) I have tinnitus and there was a fan in the room. This was really wonderful because it produced white noise. This was a big plus for me.
3) My room was cleaned and towels changed daily
4) On Sundays there's is a wonderful farmer's market in Rue de la Convention, very close to the hotel.
5) There's someone 24/7 in the reception
6) There are nice restaurants and stores nearby, should you have forgotten any toiletries
7) I travel very light and do laundry while on vacation. There are 3 laundromats at walking distance, 5EUR for the washer, and 1.5EUR for 8 mins in the dryer
8) The area is quiet and peaceful at night
Things that didn't bother me, but may be a deal-breaker for some
1)The carpets are old and the walls are stained
2) The elevator barely fits 3 people and there are no sounds for the blind. There is only one elevator, and one time it was out-of-service. This may be a problem for someone with moving difficulties such as injuries or disabilities.
3)Although it says they are "air conditioned", I did not see a vent or an air conditioner in the room. It has heating though.
4) If you have loud neighbors, you will hear them. The sound of the fan helped mask the noise
5) the opening to enter the shower is extremely narrow, about a foot wide.
6) When exiting the room, it is necessary to slam the door for it to close. I tried to be quiet but it was impossible
