The Sacre Coeur do the basics right, i.e it's clean, the showers work, and the service is efficient.

However an accumulation of little things spoiled our 2 day stay. e.g Chipped cups in the bedroom, no shampoo or shower cap in the bathrooms, no communal no-smoking area, and no "good morning" from the breakfast staff.

If you were paying B&B rates you probably wouldn't mind, but you're not. You'll be asked to pay full govt hotel rates i.e 52 Euro per head per night.
