4/10, Deficient

I’ve stayed at multiple Adagios, including within Paris. This one is completely different, and not in a good way.
First, the hallway condition (at least on the third floor) is horrible. The whole hallway makes you not want to touch anything.
The rooms are terribly designed. The bathroom does not have a separate shower stall or curtain. The water goes everywhere, and they know this because they provide a squeegee to dry the floor afterwards.
The kitchen is worse. There is zero counter space that is not taken up by the sink or the cooktop. Not an exaggeration. The coffee maker and kettle must be on the cooktop when used.
Unlike the other Adagios (or citadines) in Paris, there is no dishwasher. Nor is there a dish rack, and if there were it would have to go on the cooktop.
Why don’t you use the table? Good question, but there isn’t a table. They provide a little breakfast in bed style tray. But you’re eating any meal you prepare in bed—and presumably you got a room with a kitchen because you wanted to use it.
In addition, the heat was shut off centrally. In October. I asked. They listened. The did nothing. So I maxed out the heated towel rack and moved on.
There are some nice things. They do a little tea with cakes every afternoon. The staff is reasonably nice. The location is great. But the actual room seems like it was designed by someone who knew they’d never have to stay there. Or AI.
