This hotel is in the area of the Pigalle, which was known to World War II era GI's as Pig Alley as it was infamous for its (really ugly) pituortstes. It remains an area with many sex shops, sleazy bars and pituortstes. However, please note that none of these activites (including prostitution) are illegal in France. Generally speaking there is little violent crime in the city of Paris. Such things tend to be found in the suburbs where the poor, and especially the non-white poor, have been relegated by the government to huge Stalinist housing projects. Still, it would be wise to keep your wits about you in this area. Drunks who've been hanging out in strip clubs and porno movies are going to be jerks no matter where you are. I personally suggest that people stay in the center of the city but Paris is compact and easy to navigate. From this location you can easily access Montmartre which will be northwest of your hotel which is popular with visitors and you're really only a 15 minute bus ride to the center of the city.
