We didnt stay here, but had made a booking through holidaycity.com which we canceled two weeks before we were to stay. The hotel still took our money from our creditcard and after many emails to and fro and contacting our bank claiming a fraudulent transaction we still have not been refunded. Total rip off. DO NOT STAY HERE!!!!

Who gave this hotel two stars? The location in "Little Algeria" was O.K. as it is near everything but there was no service, the rooms were dirty and the bathroom was inadequately cleaned. Luckily we were only booked for a few hours between our train's arrival and a flight out.. The airport shuttle which I had expected when I booked the room wsa non-existent.

If I had known better I would have spent the extra 50 bucks and stayed somewhere decent... this hotel is positively awful. Greasy, paper-thin bedspreads, unsanitary sheets, creaky, funky windows... the carpet has never been vacuumed in years and the bathroom is poorly-lit and there is no shower curtain.

All the above you can find in Paris or Lyon and be forced to pay $150 for... that is if you're in a nice location.
Well STAY AWAY from this arrondissement of Lyon (the 3rd-4th) because it is basically a North African quarter, tons of kebab shops and everything is written in Arabic-- being a female, I was very distrubed walking on the street (avenue de marseille) and seeing ONLY arabic men standing around aimlessly, in coffee shops where there are NO women around. Men might not understand how it feels, but when you look around your street and see NO women whatsoever, not in the shops, bars, or cafés, you get nervous..I was sexually harassed pretty much non stop.

overall, stay the **** away from this property and go stay somewhere else.

The clerk didn't speak English. He was surly and didn't know anything about our reservation. There was a tour of 18-25 year olds staying there. It was like being in a dorm. They were noisy until 2:00AM. It was hot. The elevator didn't work on our last night. The parking was far away. The hotel was farther away from the tourist sights than I like to be. I wouldn't recommend this hotel unless you can't afford anything better.
