We loved Hotel Villa-K the minute we saw it and what surrounds it. It's like being submerged in what France was like a long time ago, quite romantic. However, there are great amenities both at the hotel and in the area. (There's a Chinese/French Buffet that is amazing two blocks away.) They provided a shuttle service from the airport, which saved us quite a bit of money. Our receptionist was such a friendly young woman, and was very thorough in explaining how the ac/heat worked for the room and answered all our questions. It was a very clean facility and the breakfast options offered the following morning far exceeded our expectations. French baked items, both breads and pastries were offered in many forms. There were hard boiled eggs with special cups from which to eat the soft-boiled eggs. The quality of their food was out of this world. The young male receptionist we met upon checkout was cheerful and personable. He even hired us a cab to get to where the ship for our cruise was docked. Our only complaint was that the beds were much less soft than Americans are used to sleeping in, but I can understand that it's "more healthful" than soft beds for us. That's what the young man told us. We loved staying there.
