Do NOT stay here, so unsafe for a solo traveler. There was no one at the front desk and the place was musty. Felt like a ghost hotel or something. Also a very bad odor. Got bad vibes and left immediately; reminded me of a trafficking scene.

We stayed in various hostel/hotels and this by far was the worst. We didn’t have hight expectations given how cheap the room was, and it still managed to disappoint. We arrived at the hotel about 20 minutes after the 3pm check-in and no one was at reception. There was roach spray behind the counter. We waited 40 minutes before anyone showed up. We yelled out hello, knocked on the door behind reception, inquired at the restaurant next door, and even checked upstairs with no luck. This was beyond stressful as we had tickets for the Louvre and little to no time to spare. It looks like only one person works per shift, as the receptionist finally showed up from cleaning rooms, she gave us our key and disappeared again. We went upstairs and rushed to make our Louvre reservation. This meant we had no time to relocate the receptionist and complain about the room we received. I paid for a more expensive room in order to get a private bathroom and all of the pictures showed bathrooms with doors or at the toilet separated from the rest of the room. Our room had an open floor plan with no doors or even a curtain to separate the toilet from the rest of the room. The curtains were dusty, the bed frame was rusty and cracked, the AC didn’t work, the tv had no control or buttons, and the bed sheets were linty and stained. By the time we came back it was too late to change the room and the worker said “it’s only one night, oh well.” We didn’t even want to lay on the bed.

The hotel was very different from the photos shown on the website. The room and the overall condition of the property were poorly maintained and there was a bad smell. The place did not look like what was advertised online.
Because of these issues, my wife and I decided to leave the property immediately and did not stay there or use the room at all. It was very stressful because we had to look for another hotel late at night in a city that was unfamiliar to us.
Unfortunately, even though we did not use the accommodation, the hotel did not refund our payment. I hope the platform reviews properties more carefully and ensures that photos and descriptions truly reflect the real condition of the accommodation so that other travelers can make informed decisions.

The room has a lots of pipes and can’t sleep of the noise of the water dropping in the ceiling then the light went off and did not turned on again. There is only one shared bathroom and toilette for the whole pad. Even the sink is just a full hole if something falls you can’t get it. We ask if we can get refund because we are supposed to stay until the fourth day but unfortunately you can’t get refund as we ask from receptionist. Maybe if it’s only one night stay it would be okay.

I was booked into this hotel and new it wasn't a high stare place but was only going to be there for a couple nights. The day before we were going to check in I got alerted to some more newer reviews of the. Pictures not being accurate, that there were bugs and it was unclean. There was no way I was going to stay there as it would be a health risk. So I contacted Expedia to try and cancel and the property wouldn't reply and I was told I couldn't get a refund. I will continue to fight that because this property should be looked into by them if they have any standards.

Property is rundown and not kept up. Room also run down, has toilet, sink. One sharable shower on third floor that worked but cluttered with non essentials, lacked places to hold soap etc, 'broken' shower head that you had to hold to use. Overall good location, 20 minutes walk to Notre Dame, Louvre, close to subways, trains, restaurants, patisseries. Farther to Eiffel Tower, arc de triomphe (use subway). Overall, recommend paying more and hopefully get a better place.

I MADE THE WORST MISTAKE BY NOT CHECKING THE REVIEWS BEFORE MAKING THE RESERVATION. THE PICTURES YOU SEE ONLINE ARE ALL PHOTOSHOPPED AND IT IS ALL PHOTOSHOPPED, I HOPE YOU ARE READING THIS BEFORE GETTING A ROOM.

Absolute scam stay away!

Absolutely awful place, paid for a ‘private bathroom which was just a toilet and shower put down in the middle of the room, very unclean place, hairs all over the bed, wallpaper was peeling off the walls and the curtains which were extremely disgusting didn’t fit the windows properly so no privacy whatsoever from the flats across the street.

The photos on the website are completely a fraud, staff weren't willing to help when we confronted and asked for a refund as we would have to find somewhere else to stay as it felt completely unsafe, the door had clearly been kicked in multiple times to change the locks and also the addition of no privacy meant we couldn’t get changed in the room without someone peering in the window.

No towels were provided nor any warm bedding, the outlets to plug chargers into weren’t working at all the only outlet that did was one in the ceiling for the mounted tv which also didn’t work as the remote was for a different TV.

The walls are extremely thin and there is a shared toilet in the hallway to your room so can hear the other tenants ridiculously easy, also the smell~

The place was totally unclean, dust everywhere and looked like it hadn’t been cleaned in years, not really what you want when there’s a toilet 2 feet from the bed. Greasy floor as well it felt like an unclean kitchen.

Front door into the reception if you could call it had was unlocked all night and had no security whatsoever throughout the building.

Complete scam do not stay!

The place was horrible, it was the worst experience regarding price value balance, the wc/toilet was next to the bed, with no door separating both, so you would be siting on the toilet doing your thing, while your couple watches you , same with the shower , we didn't stay , I tried to contact hotels.com but I had no sim card with capability to call a land line I will try to get a refund from this horrible experience

Le Petit Borda is a derelict building masquerading as a hotel. It's basically a scam.

I booked a double with its own private bathroom based on the lovely photos. What I actually got was quite shocking and nothing like the photos.

There was no hot water for two days. No toilet paper, no towels - nothing. The private bathroom didn't exist at all. It was a toilet in sight of the bed. There was smelly bird faeces on the curtains. Damp and mould in the bedroom. Sharp rusty spikes on the bed itself make it dangerous to use. Filthy smelly mouldy showers crammed with old hairs. Disgusting floors not cleaned in months. The leaking roof drips onto the stairs making it dangerous to use. The furniture and fittings are damaged.

Worst of all, the staff are complacent, uncaring and rude. They're not bothered by their appalling reviews.


This is not a hotel; it is a dosshouse unfit for human habitation.

I made a formal complaint about this because this place was a joke, the picture on your website is not of the hotel, it’s of the place across the street, the lights didn’t work in half of the room, your pictures show a shower, but it’s downstairs and it stinks, there was hair in the bed, the never cleaned the bed, the television had no signal, the water was cold and the sink was clogged and then when I complained the guy told me to call booking, they don’t care, she even tried to put me in a room I didn’t pick, and lied and told me it was the room I picked. I already complained to booking and disputed the charges. Because they should not get away with treating people like that. Clean up and put some lights in the hallways.

This place looks absolutely nothing like the pictures. It's shabby, rooms are not nice, bathrooms are average. It seemed like there was only one very small toilet and one shower for two floors of rooms.

No air con or heating in the room we stayed in. (It was a heat wave in Paris at the time and the room was actually hotter than outside at some points)

It didn't feel super safe over all. I also didn't spot any smoke detectors in the rooms or hallways.

We left a night early and went somewhere else for our last night in Paris because this place was just not good.

However the bed is okay, if you literally just want a bed in Paris for a night then it might do you just fine.

My stay at this Paris hotel was deeply disappointing. The room looked nothing like the pictures online; it was unclean with dingy lighting. The sink was broken, and I was unable to shower. Worst of all, I got bitten by bed bugs, which was incredibly distressing. The overall state of the hotel was poorly maintained and uncomfortable. I would not recommend this hotel to anyone seeking a pleasant stay in Paris.

Room had no toilet which was not disclosed when I had booked the room. Nor did staff let me know where there was a toilet. I had to look around the whole building and when I finally found one it was a 1m x 1m cupboard filled with spiders and cobwebs. Bowl was also stained brown. This also meant there was no shower in the room and I didn’t know where there was one, staff did not let me know. Luckily I had a friend nearby. The room was confusing, small bed and weird room lay out, however, had nice windows overlooking the Parisian streets. Hard to find as the reception was in what I can only assume is an out of operation cafe. Wouldn’t stay here again but didn’t have a horrible time.

After walking up 4 flights of stairs I was shown the pink, 8'x10' room that I dubbed \"my cell\". The mattress on the cot was stiff and the pillow felt like a sack of flour. However the sheets were clean. The shared bathroom was small and dingy. And don't forget to bring in your own TP! A mistake I never made again. I was scared to check out the communal shower since I didn't stay long. The staff were friendly to me but while I was going out once, the older woman was screaming at the younger one trying to get her to leave, to the point of picking up a chair and \"poking\" her out the door, lion tamer style. I think they were mother/daughter but my French isn't that good. For a backpacker on a budget it was adequate. But lower your expectations. It did not match the listing.

This hotel is the dirtiest one. No hot water in the room. The sink is clogged. The toilet in the room has no privacy. They have dirty shared toilet and shower on the floor. The front desk girl was rude. They never sent anyone to make the water hot. Very disappointing! Expedia should not sponsor that awful hotel.

That place has nothing to do with the pictures shown on various websites. It’s not clean, promises bathtub/shower in some (more expensive) rooms while they are absent, and a complaining customer was served the same type of lies (“under renovation”, “we don’t see the pictures posted on the websites”, “sorry, didn’t know you were told there was a shower in your room” than others. To add insult to injury, the shared shower was dirty and didn’t have hot water… in the middle of winter. A total disgrace

Very cute, close to transit and restaurants, quintessentially Parisian. Several nights there were folks partying loudly until all hours of the night. I was surprised to arrive and find out the shower was shared and on a different floor. They were also doing some renovations when we were there. It was comfy and warm and the price was right.

What an unfortunate stay. We chose location over comfort and underestimated how bad it would be. This hotel had none of the amenities listed by hotels.com, no housekeeping, no 24/7 front desk staff and we barely saw staff at all. The bathroom was not private as promised and the communal shower door did not lock. The floors were dirty. When I finally saw an employee and asked about the wifi, he took my phone out of my hand and logged me into the wifi of a different hotel down the street. The room was locked in at 80 degrees so we had to choose between hot, stuffy room or open windows out onto the loud street. At one point the owner got into a loud argument with someone in the lobby and there was quite a bit of yelling. I was so uncomfortable here I wanted to leave and stay somewhere else, but unfortunately we were in town over a holiday weekend and it was too difficult and spendy to go somewhere new. I would not feel safe staying here alone. I have no idea why they are endorsed by Hotels, but all I can say is please do your research ahead of time, and avoid this place.

Stay elsewhere

There was no one at reception, despite the hotel saying they have 24/7 service. We had to wait awhile before anyone even noticed we were there.

They then informed us that we reserved a communal toilet room, despite it not being an option during the reservation process. Our reservation confirmation did not indicate anything about a communal toilet/shower. Most people would assume that a \"hotel\" with a high nightly rate gives you a private bathroom; they should advertise as a hostel at most if they are charging for communal amenities.

For a little extra money, save the hassle and reserve a slightly costlier hotel.

The room itself smelt moldy and was somewhat unclean. The mattress was old and uncomfortable to the point we could feel the metal bed bar under our backs. There was initially no hot water and we had to ask the front desk to turn it on.

The hallway lights do not work. The lock on the communal toilet did not work. The doors are sticky so you need to push them open forcefully. I would feel unsafe staying here alone knowing that anyone could walk in from the street at any point and make their way into the dark halls.

The most helpful person during our stay was a woman who claimed she didn't even work there, it seemed like a family run establishment and she was just a relative. She moved us to another room for our second night, since another guest cancelled. This room was a little better.

In general, does not seem very legit nor comfortable, and I will not be back.

DO NOT STAY HERE!!!! I looked underneath the bed after my stay to make sure I didn’t leave anything and they have not cleaned underneath in a very long time, I found dirty tissues and so much dirt under the bed. Nevermind the toilet, GROSS!!! You don’t have a toilet or a shower in your own room. This is a hostel for the price of a hotel. DO NOT STAY

THE WORST NIGHTMARE EVER

I went to this hellhole with my boyfriend for our anniversary, this is what i fund

-The room was filthy and smelled as dump
-We fund a Mars snack wrap under the bed, together with a inch of dust
-The room was absolutely not the the one we chose and saw pictures of
-On the reservation it didn t say that the shower was going to be shared,
-On the reservation it said the hotel had a bathtub (it did not exist)
-The little bathroom we had in our room had not been cleaned
-The receptionist was rude and started shouting at us in french when we complained about the room conditions
-On the sunday morning we were NAKED in the room and at 1.30 pm the housekeeper walked into the room without knocking and asking us to leave, i had to cover myself with a towel and show her the reservation, that my checkout was on the monday, as she didn t want to leave

We had the WORST TIME and our anniversary holiday got completely ruined. We didn t have any support from hotel.com as at the moment, when i first contacted you, the operator said that she could not deal with the hotel as there was no one speaking french on your side, so i got left on my own

Best solution? DO NOT BOOK THIS HORRIBLE PLACE

I wish I read all of the reviews first. This is literally the worst place I’ve ever stayed at. Cockroaches in the bathroom, dirty, super loud, horrible sewer smell. To top it all off I now have bed bug bites all over my body thanks to this run down motel. Do not stay here. It’s not worth it just because the area is amazing. Stay away.

Perfect for the price and location

This is a great spot for the price in the heart of Paris. While this place may not be for everyone (sink in the room but shared bathroom down the hall), it was perfect for me as a solo traveler looking to experience Paris on a budget. The owner was also very helpful in setting up my room so that I could check-in a few hours early. I would not hesitate to stay at this place again.

It is in a convenient location and much cheaper than most in the area. The room itself is clean and tidy, though not modern. The corridor and stairs are in need of a good clean, and quite dark if you don’t switch lights on yourself. There is no lift.

The reception is essentially non-existent, consisting of just one or two people lingering near a table. This would not be so unusual for a rural pensione or guest house in a developing country – but completely out of place for a hotel in the centre of Paris.

If you’re not used to Paris, or are not confident about your own security, you should probably consider spending 50€ more for an established hotel.

A horrible and unsafe hotel. Dirty, in horrible shape, dangerous and by far worst place I've ever seen. Hot, no aircondition, no bathroom, no shower. We booked for 2 nights, but left after 1. Crawling with insects, cockroaches and bed bugs. Electricity shorted because of loose wires everywhere, leaving an entire floor without electricity. No escape ways in case of fire.

La chambre était propre mais l'établissement n'est pas du tout professionnel. Équipements délabrés, salle de bain présentant de la robinetterie vétuste, peinture de la chambre faite a l'arrache. Le bar d'en face provoque des nuisances mais quand on vient dans ce quartier il faut s'y attendre. Cependant le personnel est sympathique et a l'écoute et la situation géographique de l'hôtel au cœur du marais en font un hôtel pas cher pratique quand on passe un weekend au coeur de Paris.
