Hotel was close to the(underground)train station. When you get off the train take the up the stairs or elevator to the main road and walk up the hill to the hotel. Less than 5 minute walk and not very steep hill. Staff member was super helpful. I had called earlier to ask about early check and was told no, but they could store our luggage if we wanted to sight see, but when we got there a couple hours early our room was ready which was great. Our room was quite large, bigger than we expected. Had a bed, a hide a bed couch, living room area, big bathroom, TV, and fan. No air conditioning in room but fan was helpful. Hotel is called Hotel Des Patients because it is near or connected to a hospital so family members have a place to stay if a loved one is in the hospital. We didn't know that when we booked it, but everything was wonderful. Staff members spoke good English and were very helpful with everything. Helped figure out my phone to get the free hotel internet, gave us an umbrella to borrow on a rainy day, stored our luggage when we checked out so we could go to church by train without lugging that around, and staff was just very pleasant and eager to help. Breakfast and lunch service was very good also. Breakfast was a big spread of food; fruit, yogurt, breads, meat, cheeses, sausage, bacon boiled or scrambled egg, chocolate or white milk in a box, cereal and a few other things, and self serve coffee and juice station. Great hotel and friendly staff!

More of a hospital than a hotel
Hotel was very clinical, more of a hospital than a hotel. On discovering more the hotel is used by patients of the nearby hospital. There is a maternity floor and patients come to breakfast with bandaged limbs, carrying oxygen bags. Very strange. It stated parking was free but this was not the case. Also no air con. Hotel was very clean. Good breakfast but wont stay here again.

It is a hotel where some of the guests are people who are either being discharged from the hospital, or are mothers of new born babies, will be staying before they go home. This was not an issue, and it appears they are in a different part of the building from other hotel guests. The hotel is extremely clean and comfortable though because of this. Our room was big and bright, and the staff were amazing. Parking was easy and right on location, breakfast was excellent, and it's a very short walk to the subway station.

Very clean hotel! We got the big room for a family of four. Nice huge wrap-around balcony with plants. Didn’t mind not having aircondition (early June) because the room felt cool enough with the centralized fan. Huge bathroom. Amazing breakfast! Steps away from metro. Friendly staff! Exceeded expecations.
