Excellent Stay in Saint-Germain-des-Prés

really good location friendly staff upgraded room

The location is really good (I walked everywhere!). The hotel is near the metro, the Louvre, and the Seine. The staff was very friendly and cute. I was upgraded to a lovely room. It.

The shower head in my room did not work properly. It made showering a little difficult. The lack of proper ventilation also meant the mirrors fogged up quickly after a shower.

wonderful location accommodating staff stained carpets unpleasant smell

the location was wonderful. they gave us a room to freshen up and drop off our bags so we could start our adventure. the staff proved very accommodating. i found this particularly helpful.

The carpets were heavily stained and in need of a deep cleaning. the towels had an unpleasant smell, resembling cigarette smoke. The wi-fi was not functional . the beds advertised as doubles were significantly smaller! closer in size to a large twin or full.
