convenient stay near latin quarter

effective air conditioninggreat locationoutdated room
The air conditioning in the room was effective. the room remained comfortable. the shower worked well, and the bed was good. the hotel also has an elevator. its location is also great. It is in the best part of the 5th arrondissement.
the rooms were not as updated as shown in the pictures. marks were visible on the walls. we had to move rooms upon arrival. wallpaper in our second room had a black pattern, good for sleeping but not very uplifting.

the location was acceptable for exploring the area.
The room was small. It was like a shoebox. the lift wasn't working for two whole days. I had to lug my suitcase up several flights of stairs. breakfast was too expensive considering the limited options.
