Fabe must stand for fabulous because this was our best place out of seven in 2.5 weeks in Europe. It's hard to find a modern, super clean place with all the amenities of home, for an affordable price in the heart of the city, but they do it! And... It comes with a complimentary breakfast! It's smaller than American hotel rooms, but all over Europe they are, and this was actually roomier than a flat we stayed in - In Paris! Our two receptionists on the two days we were there were Gautier and Hélder who speak English very well! They were helpful: Gautier took up our luggage and provided us with cold water bottles (we were so tired and thirsty when we got there) and we enjoyed talking with Hélder the next day during and after the beautiful spread of food that he provided for us. He also helped us on which line on the metro would make the best time. The rooms were spacious, linens in bathroom were soft and there was a good supply of towels; sheets and comforter were clean and we slept like babies for a nap in the afternoon as well as the evening. The drapes were "black out drapes" and looked new, so we slept very well in the afternoon. Everything inside this hotel room looked brand new - from the tile in the bathroom, to the upholstery on the chairs - it was VERY well done! The rooms all have cute names - we were in Desir ;) I think there was a safe in the closet, but I just looked briefly. Organic body wash is in the shower and hairdryer is ready on the wall if you need one. Full body mirror on the entire sliding closet door. There may have been a fridge in the closet, so if u r interested in staying here, just ask when u call. They also had a great orchid/lucky bamboo arrangement when u first walk in along with some mints- I'll post the pic. read more
