1. Superior rooms are typically slightly larger than Deluxe rooms and/or have a better view. Some superior rooms will have a pullout sofa. No deluxe rooms will. We travel with 2 kids under 7 and always book a superior room at a minimum. This hotel does not offer rollaway beds, if I remember correctly. Most rooms are shower-only, which may be a consideration if little kids prefer bath tubs. A few superior rooms have tubs instead of showers. You may want to call ahead, day of check-in, and see if they can guarantee you a tub room, if necessary. The windows are single pane and thin. We typically avoid rooms facing outward towards Canal or Baronne. You can hear busses, sirens, cars revving their engines. Pool-facing rooms are quieter.
