Just off the Montorgueil market and a short hoof from Les Halles (and slightly seedy Rue St-Denis), this is one of the least expensive hotels in the city center. The so-old-fashioned-they're-vintage-cool rooms aren't much to look at and have few amenities, but they're clean, and some are spacious. Cheaper rooms are available with just a sink (toilets and pay showers are in each hall). Pros: dirt-cheap rooms in the center of town; in a newly trendy shopping and nightlife area. Cons: minimal service and no amenities; noise from the street.
