The room was Snug as expected however it is right in the middle of the Latin Quarter making it an ideal place to stay. The staff were extremely courteous and very helpful. If you are looking for a quiet place, this is not for you. Otherwise, I would stay here again .

This property is right in the heart of everything. Rooms are real Snug but had what we needed. The one thing I would say is if you need to use the bathroom or get up for any reason at night, it's hard to crawl over your partner.
