Thanks! The new Courtyard Paris has some decent reviews, although they offer nowhere near the Plat/Tit/Amb benefits one would find at Asian Courtyards. Having just spent the better part of a month at CP/HIs in Japan --many of which were built in the 1980s and haven't seen a penny of investment since-- I was thrown off by this remark:

Do any of the HI in Paris have reasonably modern rooms with furniture that doesn't immediately provoke a "yuck, I'm not sitting on that" response upon walking in the room, working wifi, etc?
