It is in a quiet area with a convenience store across the street. Overall, the building is well-kept, with comfortable and remodeled rooms. The staff was friendly and helpful. The rooms are small, but hey, you are in Paris. One drawback was getting into the elevator, which was adjacent to the stairs on the half floor. The elevator door opens to a step up to the fourth floor. Access to rooms on the fifth floor and attic is only by stairs. I do not recommend this hotel for people with mobility issues.
