The area around this hotel is very quiet and seemed quite safe for walking at night and for leaving a car parked all day (there were lots of nice cars parked in the neighborhood and plenty of available parking places). The U3 is a very short walk from the hotel and will get you to the Center in about 12 minutes.

The mattresses in our room were VERY hard, and the shower had weak water pressure and luke warm water at best. However, the room was clean and spacious and contained a lovely antique-style armoire that added some charm. The ceilings were very high, and the windows were enormous. One thing our room really needed was some art on the walls, though; the massive, white expanses lent the room a rather institutional air. The toilets (outside the room) have no sinks in them, so you have to return to your room to wash your hands.

The staff were exceedingly friendly and helpful. Breakfast consisted of cereal, yogurt, cold cuts, cheese slices, breads, jams, orange juice, and coffee. There is an adorable bunny rabbit living in the lounge area, but he stays in his cage when that room is unlocked.
