"Le Boulevardier is a bargain 11-room hotel with snug, spotless rooms. It's up a steep spiral staircase above a cool little bistro and jazz club of the same name, which doubles as reception." Full review
"A rare central budget find, the rooms here are generally fairly spartan...but they’re clean and bright."

Note, though, that the stairs are steep and there’s no lift.
