@Pepin - I just noticed your avatar. In case you didn't know Chat Noir is also a hotel in Paris. I stayed there once. It is a bit funky but quite nice. My only issue with the place is it is over (or next to) a bakery and I work up early every morning to awesome smells.

Sounds like a nice place. Love the European bakeries and patisseries.
I first saw the Chat Noir poster in a Prague absinthe bar.
