2 minutes for the metro C and 5 minutes to metro A in Hotel de Ville (which is a nice area with a lot of bars and restaurants). It's also not so far from parc la tête d'or! around 15-20 minutes walk) The staff was really friendly and helpful. I really like that you have a kitchen and laundry that you can use. There's also a really nice bar outside the hotel :) I really recommend about this place and I'll definitely will come back there!
