Free wifi, friendly people at the reception and they can speak English, ice machines on every floor, what more can one ask for?
How I wish son were with us. He’d love it here. There’s jazz music in the bar! Guitar’s like his.
Hotel is near Gare Montparnasse. Across it is a supermarche, a pharmacie and restos. On the reception desk is a bowl of candies.
The elevators are fast.
Pity we’ll be here for only 3 nights. It’s such an improvement over Mercure.
Disabled room has a wide door, door to bathroom is wide. there are bars everywhere. the only flaw – it has no roll in shower but a bathtub. But they had warned me in an email, so I’m not complaining. Not at all.
And this is no paid advertisement. It’s a glowing report of a hotel in France that’s really the best so far for us. Several notches higher, no second thoughts about it.
And when we entered the room, there was even a greeting on the TV welcoming us, my name written on it.
Diagonal to it is a Chinese resto: Le table chine or something. How did we find it? The guy at the reception pointed it out to us when we asked for the nearest Chinese resto. If this trip has made me realize on thing, it’s that Asian food remains my favorite bar none.
PS
The shampoo, bath gel and soap are Annick Goutal, no less. The ladies at the Reception are nice. Earlier this a.m. as we waited in line for someone to attend us, someone who must have been their boss saw us and asked how she could help. She promptly endorsed us to one of the girls.
