"Appreciated very helpful staff, firm, comfortable bed & pillows, refrigerator not filled with products to buy, kettle, dishes, strong shower, controllable air conditioning, quiet, drying rack. Concerns were no English-language TV news available, even France 24 in English was actually in French. It's a good 20& minute walk to transit & to Old Town. Hair dryer is mounted too far from outlet to plug in. Phone number for reception should be on the phone so easily found. No luggage racks."
