Pro: Hotel is located 50m from metro and has reasonable price for Paris. Good surroundings. Contra: Hotel rooms are small but new equipped rooms. Free wifi didn't work. Shower tray was so small that I hit my elbows on the wall. more

Hotel was nice and looked neat, but I was very dissappointed to find a big dum in a whole bathroom wall. I complained twice at the reception, but they basically told me off - easy to do since I was staying only one night. However, I wrote later on to the hotel, and they basically said I should have spoken... more

Rooms were nicely sized and well decorated, very clean and modern design. i stayed at this hotel for one night, and the location was great, in the latin quarter and just a few minutes walk from the metro. Compared to similar paris hotels, the price was great (90 euros). Nice amenities and free wifi is a plus. My only complaint... more

I have nothing to add about the hotel itself that other commenters haven't already mentioned, but I will warn you that a mystery charge of 100 Euros was added to my credit card. I contacted them several times after discovering the charge, and after receiving an initial cryptic response was completely ignored. So they got away with stealing about $150.00... more

For the culture-oriented traveller very good start position.Small hotel,small rooms,but in good condition.For slim people without 10 suitcases optimum-fatties and exactings are to look for anything different-and expensiver!

The room was so small that we didn't have enough space for out suitcases. Bathroom was so dirty and showertools were broken. Basement (for breakfast) was freezing cold. Mentioned everything but nobody has taken action. Location is great but think before you book. There will be other hotels in the neighbourhood. more

I normally have no problems with the tiny rooms in Paris and the poor maintenance of its charming old buildings. I can even accept the poor noise isolation. However, waking up with the neck and arms covered by bed bugs bites is not acceptable in this type of stablishement. I never had such a bad stay in Paris and I... more

I needed a one night stay for a professional visit. Despite the relatively bad comments on this site, I booked the Maxim due to its perfect location (and the other hotels around were full). I was positively surprised. The room was not large, but functional. The bathroom was small, but with a bath, not just a shower. Room and bathroom... more

As folks have stated, room & bathroom very small. Used desk to place suitcases, otherwise no other place than the bed as little to no walk space around bed(s). Carpeting stained, minimum cleaning of furniture. Maid leaves door/window open. No air conditioning. Portable fan in room didn't work. Not a place to stay in summer. Original room - 302 twin,... more
