Hotel des Arts is only 2 Star but it is quite stylish, clean and reasonably priced. The location is very good and central, importantly close to the Cafe de la Press where even a spoiled European can find the Cappuccino and specifically the Croissants very good.

Throughout multiple nights, including weekdays, there was loud music with a loud bass that made our room vibrate. This would go on until 1 or 2 am every night. We told the staff and they offered no solution. The rooms looked clean, but we think there might have been bed bugs since our skin started itching after our first night.
