The hotel is distant from Paris, but it is 500m from a metro station. It takes 30min to arrive at the station of Bastille, and a little longer at Republique. The hotel room is confortable, but not luxury. The breakfast is self-service, but it does not have many options.
The recepcionists of the hotel are nice and one of them was particularly helpful in the day that I arrived, in which I could check in at 11:30 after a long trip.
My only concern is about the maintainance of the rooms. The seat of the toilet bowl of my room was broken when I arrived. I informed it to the reception in the beginning of the third day of my stay. However, it was not replaced (and I stayed in the hotel for a total of 7 days).
For the price, I think this hotel is convenient for working or tourism in Paris. However, do not expect too much and, in case of problems with maintainance, it is better to complain frequently.
