From quick problem-solving to personal touches, this experience truly reflects the high standard of hospitality. Definitely worth every penny.

The hotel's location is fantastic—just a short walk from République Square and well-connected by metro. The staff were helpful overall, though I did have a bit of a mix-up with an intern at reception due to language barriers, which led to accidentally paying twice for my four-night stay. After comparing prices, I realized the rate I paid through the platform was 1200 RMB higher than what I could’ve gotten directly at the front desk—both rates were without breakfast. It’s a bit disappointing, but it made me realize that booking breakfast in person at the hotel is often cheaper and avoids any hidden markups. Definitely recommend getting breakfast on-site if you can. Despite the small hiccup, the room was clean, comfortable, and the service improved once we sorted things out. A great value overall, just be mindful of where and how you book.

We stayed at this charming B&B for two nights from October 3rd to 5th, wrapping up our 15-day journey across Austria, Switzerland, and France. Honestly, I didn’t plan many stays in advance—this one turned out to be the highlight of the trip. The room was cozy and thoughtfully designed, with carefully chosen furniture and a powerful, hot shower that made it perfect after long days of exploring. The king-size bed was incredibly comfortable—exactly what you need after walking all over Paris. One small downside: the walls aren’t very soundproof. We were treated to an extended late-night conversation from a neighboring guest (a Chinese traveler) around 1 AM, followed by a full-length phone call with her insurance company the next morning at 8 AM—definitely not something we asked for, but still, it didn’t ruin the experience. Location-wise? Perfect. Right outside the bus stop and just steps from the Metro Line 9 station. The area is safe, lively, and packed with great restaurants and local vibes. Our host, Jean, was absolutely exceptional—a true Parisian gentleman. He greeted us with warm hospitality and even handed us two versions of the Paris map (one in English, one in Chinese). Every morning after breakfast, we’d chat about our plans, and he always had smart, insightful suggestions—whether it was the best route to a hidden gem or a fantastic little wine bar tucked away on a quiet street. When we mentioned we were short on cash heading to the airport, he insisted on giving us two free bus tickets. That kind of generosity truly made the stay unforgettable. This was our first visit to Paris, and thanks to Jean, it felt like coming home. Jean, if you ever make it to Beijing, please don’t forget to reach out—we’re already planning your welcome!
