This hotel exceeded our expectations. We had originally booked a double studio and on arrival were upgraded to one with two separate bedrooms (designed for 3), since they weren't very full. Included was a kitchenette with microwave, coffee maker, fridge, hotplates, etc. so it is ideal for self-catering, although they do provide breakfast at extra cost if required. On the negative side, there was a damp smell, probably coming from the sink or bathroom. Also, the environment was quite noisy. There is a large pedestrian area between the hotel and the Cite des Sciences which seems to be used as a playground by the locals on some nights, even at 4am, so it's best to sleep with the windows closed. Also we were aware of the movement of Metro trains under the hotel, even though we were on the 7th floor. Despite the above, I would stay there again. The service was good and friendly. The towels were replaced every day. The guy in reception spoke English and made us feel welcome.
