The hotel was decent, offering a basic room that was a little cramped but with a view over a Roman Amphitheatre. The staff was very friendly and helpful, catering to our needs, although some modernization of rooms would have been nice. The location was really good, close to Metro lines and nearby restaurants, making it convenient for exploring Paris. The dining experience was average, with good breakfast options if you're hungry, especially for non-French speakers. Overall, a stay with good value for the price but lacking some modern touches.

The hotel offers a cozy stay with comfortable rooms and a peaceful view over the Arenas, although the coffee options may not be to everyone's liking. The service includes some humorous moments but might be a bit irksome for budget travelers, especially students. The location is ideal for exploring authentic Paris and enjoying a variety of dining choices. The dining experience, while charming, comes at an extra cost.

During my stay at the hotel, I found that the rooms were decent in size for Paris, quite comfortable, and had a nice bathroom. While they were clean and the personnel very friendly, they lacked furnishings and proper lighting, giving off more of a 1 or 2-star hotel vibe. Paying in cash due to the card machine being out of order for two days without prior notice was inconvenient, but the staff went above and beyond by safeguarding our luggage post-checkout as we explored Paris on our last day.
