May/2006 Someone from madison wisconsin, usa thinks:

• Overall rating: 9.8
• Would you recommend it? Yes
• Positive: Location, followed closely by price and staff.
• Negative: Nothing.
• I RECOMMEND it for... Young travelers, Older travelers, Couples, Classic style lovers, Handicapped
• I recommend it especially AGAINST... Luxury, Modern style lovers
• Cleanliness: 10 I saw no problems with cleanliness whatsoever. It was a teensy bit shabby from age, but we hoped it stayed that way, as the value for its location seemed incredible to us.
• Location: 10 Spectacular!! Two blocks from the Seine, perhaps four from the Musee D%27Orsay, close to metro stops, etc.
• Common facilities and services: 7.5 Certainly adequate (not something we really tuned into.
• Staff: 10 Once again, extraordinary! Every staff person was warm and friendly, fluent in English, if that were your desire, knowledgeable and eager to help in any way they could.
• Quietness: Not rated
• Room: 7.5 My room was roomy and more than adequate for my needs. (I chose a room that was termed %27superior%27 at the time; it was a double, and ample in every way. Honestly didn%27t notice the view, as we were out an about as much as possible. Looked down on a street, which I found interesting; after all, this was Paris!!!
• Value for money: 10 This was the absolute best aspect of the hotel. To find a hotel (with decent rooms, lovely staff, wonderful continental breakfasts and anything else one desired) in THIS location for THIS price, quite frankly, stunned and delighted us.
