A nice basic hotel, friendly and efficient staff, great location steps from Lille-Europe or Lille-Flandres. I was given what was supposed to be a quiet room on the top floor facing the boulevard (in spite of my hesitation, I was assured the rooms were noise-proof). Well, the one window that opened didn't close very well, which means I could hear the noise from the street, especially the music from the party on the roof of the fancy restaurant across the street. Also, the toilet tank had problems refilling and the shower went from scalding hot to ice-cold in a second and it took some juggling to get it right. Finally, keep in mind there is no safe in the room but you can leave you luggage at the reception if you check in early or when checking out. All in all I would still recommend this place if you consider the price and the location.
