"It's almost impossible to overestimate the importance of Java to Oracle," wrote industry commentator Neil McAllister as the first rumors of the Oracle-Sun deal began to surface last week. McAllister referred to Java as "the crown jewel of this deal." So the question reverberating through Javaland now is: does this mean Java is back in the limelight? Or will Oracle's proprietary ways intervene in the open-source trajectory for Java set by Sun?
In his internal memo to Sun staffers, Sun CEO Jonathan Schwartz yesterday wrote that "By acquiring Sun, Oracle will be well positioned to help customers solve the most complex technology problems related to running a business."
He added:
"A combined Oracle/Sun will be capable of cultivating one of the world's most vibrant and far reaching developer communities, accelerating the convergence of storage, networking and computing, and delivering one of the world's most powerful and complete portfolios of business and technical software.
I do not consider the announcement to be the end of the road, not by any stretch of the imagination. I believe this is the first step down a different path, one that takes us and our innovations to an even broader market, one that ensures the ubiquitous role we play in the world around us."
No actual mention of "Java" anywhere in the memo, but BusinessWeek this morning reminded everyone that during a conference call with analysts yesterday, Oracle CEO Larry Ellison called Java "the single most important software asset we have ever acquired."
BW's Aaron Ricadela comments:
"It's a bold statement from a chief executive who has spent in excess of $40 billion to buy more than 50 software companies since 2005. Ellison is willing to make that call because the Java programming language, widely used to write much of the world's business software, is a key ingredient in Oracle's recipe for ensuring the many products it has already acquired work smoothly together. Java also runs on 800 million PCs and 2.1 billion mobile phones."
On its website, Oracle has the following to say about Oracle and Java:
"Oracle has been a leading and enthusiastic supporter of Java since its emergence in 1995. Today, Oracle offers the most comprehensive and productive Java EE development and deployment environments available. The addition of BEA technologies further solidifies Oracle's Java leadership.
As an executive member of the Java Community Process, Oracle participates in more than 80 Java Specification Requests (JSRs) and Oracle gurus serve as specification leads for important JSRs such as the XQuery API for Java, Standard Data Binding and Data Access Facility for J2EE, and Design Time Metadata for JavaServer Faces (JSF) Components. Oracle TopLink Essentials is the reference implementation of the new Java Persistence API which is part of EJB 3.0. Oracle is also spearheading critical tooling projects for BPEL, JSF, and EJB 3.0 within the Eclipse Foundation open source community."
Former Oracle executive and industry veterean Jnan Dash isn't as certain as his former boss Larry Ellison about the business value, to Oracle, of Java. "The gain of the Java business is significant and Oracle mentioned that that will add to the middleware revenue. Time will tell, as development platforms are not usually good revenue generators," Dash notes.
Paul R. La Monica of CNN.com makes much the same point, writing, in a piece titled "Oracle's Strange Java Brew":
To be sure, Sun has some interesting software, namely its ubiquitous Java programming software language and its open source MySQL database software and Solaris operating system.
But software remains a tiny fraction of the business -- despite the company's changing of its ticker symbol from SUNW to JAVA in 2007 to tout its software prowess.
When the company reported its fiscal second-quarter results in January, Sun said that "total software" sales rose 21% from a year ago, which is impressive. But the annual run rate for the division was just $600 million.
To put that in perspective, analysts expect Sun to report total sales of $12.4 billion this year. Sun remains predominantly a hardware company stuck in a brutally competitive business. And that's why analysts expect the company to post a loss in this fiscal year."
Let's give the last word for the moment to the Washington Post's Rob Pegararo, who this morning writes:
"Sun's stewardship of Java has had problems, such as the exceptionally boneheaded auto-update routine of its Windows Java software that it only recently fixed. But will this software fare better under Oracle's supervision? That's hard to say, since Oracle's statements on the merger focus on how it plans to combine Sun's software and hardware offerings with its own enterprise-software products.
I can only hope, then, that the future of Java does not involve handing over its development to whoever's responsible for the one Oracle product I do use regularly -- a gruesomely awful Web-based expenses-reporting application that punishes users with one of the most illogical, least efficient interfaces seen outside of old versions of Lotus Notes."

JDeveloper is probably not so bad compared to the ERP you mentioned, but it still has most of its state and usability it inherited from JBuilder 2 or so. I cannot tell, whether NetBeans for example is going to survive, but there was an earlier meeting between Larry Ellison and Scott McNeally where the 2 agreed to have JDeveloper based completely on NetBeans. It took them a while to get back on that, but at least parts of NetBeans may suite JDeveloper well. Whether the OpenSource NetBeans community will survive or not, is nevertheless not so sure. |

By Pat Romanski The true value of the Internet of Things (IoT) lies not just in the data, but through the services that protect the data, perform the analysis and present findings in a usable way. With many IoT elements rooted in traditional IT components, Big Data and IoT isn't just a play for enterprise. In fact, the IoT presents SMBs with the prospect of launching entirely new activities and exploring innovative areas. CompTIA research identifies several areas where IoT is expected to have the greatest impact. Mar. 2, 2015 02:00 AM EST Reads: 3,064 |

By Carmen Gonzalez The Internet of Things (IoT) is causing data centers to become radically decentralized and atomized within a new paradigm known as "fog computing." To support IoT applications, such as connected cars and smart grids, data centers' core functions will be decentralized out to the network's edges and endpoints (aka "fogs"). As this trend takes hold, Big Data analytics platforms will focus on high-volume log analysis (aka "logs") and rely heavily on cognitive-computing algorithms (aka "cogs") to make sense of it all.

With the ever increasing petrol prices, the market of 150cc+ bikes started to shrink as the daily commuter bend towards the more frugal 100-110cc bikes, which resulted into a cut throat competition in 150cc+ bikes segment. Bajaj is the undisputed segment leader for more than a decade now, with its Pulsar 150, which actually can be credited as the first Indian sports bike.
A whole different segment of 150cc performance bikes also resides, which includes the likes of Yamaha R15 and Honda CBR150R, but the prices make this segment limited only to the enthusiasts. Honda also offers affordable 150cc bikes, including one of its earliest offerings CB Unicorn, sportier Unicorn Dazzler. I always liked the CB Unicorn's smooth engine and subtleness, but the bike misses the character of a sports bike, on the other hand the Dazzler looks sportier, but it never made a dent to Pulsar's huge approach.
With a dream to cater 10 per cent market of 150cc+ bikes, Honda recently launched the new CB Trigger, which is more of a makeover of the existing Dazzler with a few extra features. I personally believe that the naked version of CBR150R known as the Streetfire would have been a better choice than the Trigger. I was really disappointed, when I got to know that Honda launched the next gen Unicorn instead of the Streetfire. So, with a perception in mind, I recently rode the CB Trigger and checked the potential of the bike to figure out whether it can stand in front of Yamaha Fz and Pulsar 150?
The 150cc+ segment is not only about the performance, buyers also look for the style statement a bike carries to depict their enthusiasm. Therefore, the design and styling of these bikes are equally important aspects, and the CB Trigger doesn't fail to impress you. Right from the front this bike has a masculine appearance. The big hexagonal headlight with the bikini fearing and a silver visor with air scoops on it, make it look fresh, and with the CBR250R like front mudguard the front fascia is typical Honda.
The well sculpted fuel tank with wedges and 3D Honda emblem on it, give a character to the bike. The well designed air scoops merge well with the tank and add more to its appeal. We like the sharp side panels merging well in the stylish rear panels that combinedly make the side profile even sportier. The best element in the Trigger's design is its rear, the uniquely designed LED tail light not only looks good, it gives it a different identity to the bike that you can recognize it in the crowd.
The massive black exhaust further adds to its masculine image. In addition to this, the CB Trigger comes with a chain cover and a heel-toe shifter, which were missing on the Dazzler. All in all, the CB Trigger does look fresh and sportier than the phased out Dazzler, it still doesn't outshine the close competitor FZ. However, the build quality, fit and finish are top notch.
Switch Gear and Ergonomics:
Honda's bikes always score high on comfort and ergonomics, and the Trigger is no exception. It comes with a typical Honda style switch gear, with indicator, light, high/low beam and pass light switches with horn on left, and the ignition switch on the right (I didn't like the pretty basic ignition switch, it is just a square button, which doesn't go with anything else on the bike). But I like the fully digital instrument cluster. The easy to read panel houses the speedo, tacho and odometer with clock, fuel indicators and two trip meters. Other tale-tell lights are there just above the instrument cluster.
When it comes to ergonomics, the Trigger allows its rider to sit in comfortable upright position with the wide handlebars. The sitting position feels more like a commuter; however, the fuel tank gives a good grip and the sitting posture too makes you hold your knees to the tank for better feedback. I liked the rear grab bar, which provides a good grip. Like the Dream Neo, I didn't like the stylish angular rear view mirrors, which has a limited a viewing area. Rest, the bike is ergonomically well designed and Honda again proved that they made their bikes after a lot of research. Features like full chain cover and heel-toe shifter will be a boon in demanding Indian conditions.
Engine and Performance:
The 150cc segment bikes are more about performance but other factors like fuel economy and compatibility as a daily commuter are also important aspects, and Honda is well known for smooth and frugal engines. I was already aware that the Trigger uses the same four-stroke, 149.1cc, single-cylinder, air-cooled engine of the Unicorn, so I had no doubt about its responsiveness and smooth character. This engine churns out a maximum power output of 14bhp at 8500rpm and 12.5Nm at 6500rpm. The 5-speed gearbox, with 1-down-4-up pattern is slick and with Honda's typical light clutch, the gear shifts are even more precise and smooth.
Like the Unicorn, the smoothness of this mill will win your heart, it starts to pull from the word go and hits three digit speed without much effort. The availability of torque on almost all revs and linear power delivery make it an ideal commuter. I like the strong mid range and the flat torque curve, which means you can hit higher speed without shifting up so often, a boon in urban riding conditions.
It has shorter gear ratios which makes it more ridable and add to its commuter character. I managed to hit a mark of 110kmph, and there was no vibe apart from a little around the tank, which was negligible. So, it is an engine, which loves to be revved and you will enjoy the smoothness all the way till 110kmph mark. Honda claims a fuel economy of 60kmpl, however I managed to get a fuel economy of 52kmpl in city and 62kmpl on highway, which means an overall fuel economy of 57kmpl, which is highest in the segment.
Ride and Handling:
Featuring the same diamond chassis of the Unicorn underneath, the Trigger has slightly shorter wheelbase. The chassis uses the engine as stressed member in order to improve its rigidity. It accommodates the telescopic suspension at front and a monoshock at rear, which is same as the Unicorn.
I rode this bike in Delhi recently when the roads were not in good shape due to heavy rains, but the suspension is quite capable and it did absorb all the pot holes on the road. However, it is worth to mention here that the suspension is on a softer side, which cause a lack of confidence on higher speeds. One thing that I liked is that the well designed fuel tank with the scoops provide better grip to rider's knees, helping him ride enthusiastically.
The 137kg Trigger is easy to maneuver and you will like the way it takes on the corners, thanks to its better dynamics. The wide handlebar with precise and light steering movement allow you to change direction without any vagueness. The Trigger runs on 17-inch 6-speed alloy wheels with 80/100 tubeless MRF Zapper tyre at front and 110/80 at rear, which provide better grip in both wet and dry conditions. Braking is something, where this bike sets new milestones, for the very first time a bike in India has come with Honda's proven and potent CBS (Combination Braking System).
The CBS variant comes with 240mm disc at front and 220mm disc at rear, and it applies both the brakes when you press the rear brake. And fortunately we got the CBS variant for test ride, and I found that the CBS is quite effective and capable to halt the bike quite early. Honda claims that CBS reduces the braking distance by 32 per cent and I don't doubt the same.
Honda CB Trigger has all what you look in a 150cc bike, it has masculine and aggressive design, a smooth and frugal engine, better dynamics with improved ride and handling and CBS effective braking. A Rs. 85,200 on road Delhi price for the Trigger CBS variant is something that stops me go for this, however the DLX variant (with front and rear disc brakes) for Rs. 78, 150 makes for a good deal.
The Trigger is certainly a better Dazzler with several positive changes, though I personally belive that an affordable performance bike in the segment is what Honda should have brought in.

Sorry, I didnt mean it was empty-just didnt have the file that resembled my problem. Before I saw your last post I finally gave up and went to the Genius guys and he had to get help too. He finally found it hidden in the LIBRARY/PREFERENCES/ folder. Apparently, it made a subfolder there. After deleting it, the software finally was removed. What i dont understand is when i searched for this folder it didnt show up. Thanks for the help!!!! Now to figure out more idiosyncrasies of this mac. |

A. Joseph meets the butler and the baker in prison.
1. (1-4) The Egyptian royal butler and baker are put into prison.
It came to pass after these things that the butler and the baker of the king of Egypt offended their lord, the king of Egypt. And Pharaoh was angry with his two officers, the chief butler and the chief baker. So he put them in custody in the house of the captain of the guard, in the prison, the place where Joseph was confined. And the captain of the guard charged Joseph with them, and he served them; so they were in custody for a while.
a. The butler and the baker of the king of Egypt: The butler was in charge of Pharaoh's wine and the baker was in charge of Pharaoh's food. They were imprisoned because they offended their lord, the king of Egypt. It is difficult to tell if it was in a minor or a major way. Considering how the account will develop, it is probable there was a plot to murder the Pharaoh (perhaps by poisoning).
i. But we never lose sight of the over-arching reason: whatever external reason they were sent to prison, in God's great plan they were really there to meet Joseph.
b. The captain of the guard charged Joseph with them, and he served them: This favorable treatment of Joseph by the captain of the guard shows that Potiphar did not really believe the accusations his wife made against Joseph. We know this because Potiphar himself was the captain of the guard (Genesis 39:1).
c. And he served them: Though Joseph had a position of high authority in the prison he did not use it to make others serve him. He used his high position to serve others.
2. (5-7) Joseph shows concern for the butler and baker.
Then the butler and the baker of the king of Egypt, who were confined in the prison, had a dream, both of them, each man's dream in one night and each man's dream with its own interpretation. And Joseph came in to them in the morning and looked at them, and saw that they were sad. So he asked Pharaoh's officers who were with him in the custody of his lord's house, saying, "Why do you look so sad today?"
a. Joseph came in to them in the morning and looked at them, and saw that they were sad: This is a window into the heart of Joseph. Men who are consumed with anger and bitterness do not often take a concern for the personal problems of others like this.
b. Why do you look so sad today? It would be easy - perhaps technically true - for Joseph to think that because of all the wrong done against him, everything should center on his own feelings and hurts. Instead, he cared that the butler and the baker looked so sad one day.
i. This is one of the keys to living like Jesus: being an others-centered person. Joseph could have justified certain self-centeredness in his life ("I have to take care of myself right now"), but he did not.
3. (8) Joseph invites them to tell him their disturbing dreams.
And they said to him, "We each have had a dream, and there is no interpreter of it." So Joseph said to them, "Do not interpretations belong to God? Tell them to me, please."
a. Tell them to me, please: This was not a case of mere discussion of dreams for the sake of curiosity or a form of fortune telling. Joseph saw these men were clearly disturbed by their dreams, and approached the dreams from a desire to speak to their troubled souls.
b. Do not interpretations belong to God? Joseph had experience with dreams. His two dreams about his future greatness antagonized his family (Genesis 37:5-11), and he was mocked as the dreamer (Genesis 37:19-20).
i. Joseph was confident that God knew what the dream was about. He was like the one boy who told another, "My father and I know everything." When the other boy asked a hard question, the boy just said, "That's one for my dad." Joseph knew he and his Father together knew everything.
c. Do not interpretations belong to God? God may certainly speak through dreams and many passages of Scripture show this (Genesis 20:3; 28:12; 31:11; 31:24; Numbers 12:6; 1 Samuel 28:6; Joel 2:28; Matthew 1:20; 2:13; 2:22). However, not every dream is a revelation from God. We must be careful about putting too much weight on dreams.
i. Dreams can come just because our minds are busy: A dream comes through much activity…For in the multitude of dreams and many words there is also vanity. (Ecclesiastes 5:3, 5:7)
ii. The Bible warns that false prophets might use dreams to give weight to their message (Deuteronomy 13:1-5, Jeremiah 23:25-28).
B. Joseph interprets their dreams.
1. (9-11) The butler explains his dream.
Then the chief butler told his dream to Joseph, and said to him, "Behold, in my dream a vine was before me, and in the vine were three branches; it was as though it budded, its blossoms shot forth, and its clusters brought forth ripe grapes. Then Pharaoh's cup was in my hand; and I took the grapes and pressed them into Pharaoh's cup, and placed the cup in Pharaoh's hand."
a. In my dream a vine was before me, and in the vine were three branches: Though this dream was from God, God used figures and pictures that made sense to the butler (a vine, grapes, and serving the Pharaoh wine).
b. Pharaoh's cup was in my hand: In his dream, the butler saw himself serve the Pharaoh again, restored to his former position.
2. (12-15) Joseph interprets the butler's dream and asks a favor.
And Joseph said to him, "This is the interpretation of it: The three branches are three days. Now within three days Pharaoh will lift up your head and restore you to your place, and you will put Pharaoh's cup in his hand according to the former manner, when you were his butler. But remember me when it is well with you, and please show kindness to me; make mention of me to Pharaoh, and get me out of this house. For indeed I was stolen away from the land of the Hebrews; and also I have done nothing here that they should put me into the dungeon."
a. The three branches are three days. Now within three days Pharaoh will lift up your head and restore you to your place: There were aspects to this dream that could not have been guessed, such as the three branches representing three days. Joseph's interpretation of this dream came from God, not from his own wisdom.
i. Joseph was bold enough to give an interpretation that could be proved right or wrong within three days. In only three days, everyone knew if Joseph was correct or not.
b. Remember me when it is well with you: Joseph asked the butler to work for his release. Though Joseph showed godly character in the Egyptian prison by not becoming angry and bitter in his heart, he wasn't stupid either. He wanted to get out, and used appropriate means to do so.
i. Joseph could have had fatalistic faith saying, "Well, if the Lord wants me out of prison, He will do it, and I won't have to do anything." It is true that Joseph would not get out of prison until the Lord wanted it, but none of that said that Joseph should not take wise and good steps to accomplish what he thought to be God's will. In any regard, the butler would not remember until God wanted him to remember. Joseph's action did not take the matter out from God's supervision and guidance.
3. (16-19) The baker tells his dream and Joseph interprets it.
When the chief baker saw that the interpretation was good, he said to Joseph, "I also was in my dream, and there were three white baskets on my head. In the uppermost basket were all kinds of baked goods for Pharaoh, and the birds ate them out of the basket on my head." So Joseph answered and said, "This is the interpretation of it: The three baskets are three days. Within three days Pharaoh will lift off your head from you and hang you on a tree; and the birds will eat your flesh from you."
a. When the chief baker saw that the interpretation was good: The baker was encouraged that his companion had a good interpretation of his dream, and hoped for the same regarding his own dream.
b. Within three days Pharaoh will lift off your head from you and hang you on a tree: Joseph was just as faithful to deliver the message of judgment, as he was to deliver the message of deliverance. This is the mark of a godly messenger, who does not fail to bring the whole message of God.
i. "How many there are who are willing to preach the cupbearer's sermon but are unwilling to preach the baker's sermon!" (Boice)
c. The birds will eat your flesh from you: This was a disgraceful way to die, but Joseph must have understood that the fate of the butler and the baker was each according to justice. Whatever crimes they were suspected of, the butler was innocent but the baker was guilty.
4. (20-23) The dreams come to pass exactly according to Joseph's interpretations.
Now it came to pass on the third day, which was Pharaoh's birthday, that he made a feast for all his servants; and he lifted up the head of the chief butler and of the chief baker among his servants. Then he restored the chief butler to his butlership again, and he placed the cup in Pharaoh's hand. But he hanged the chief baker, as Joseph had interpreted to them. Yet the chief butler did not remember Joseph, but forgot him.
a. Now it came to pass on the third day: The three days until Joseph was proved right must have been agonizing for the butler and the baker (though more so for the baker), yet Joseph was found to be a true messenger of God.
b. Yet the chief butler did not remember Joseph, but forgot him: Here Joseph was wronged again. He thought that butler's kindness might mean his release from prison, but it was not to be. God had another purpose.
i. All men God uses greatly, He first prepares greatly. Few are willing to endure the greatness of God's preparation. God orders both our steps and stops.

First time accepted submitter seanzig writes "Dr. Jeff Masters of Weather Underground provides a good overview of the State of the Climate Report from NOAA's National Climatic Data Center (NCDC). May 2011 through Apr. 2012 broke the previous record (Nov. 1999 — Oct. 2000). A number of other interesting records (e.g., warmest March on record) and stats emerged.

Ok I just got on after vacation in Vermont and I am anxious to find out right away. What the hell happened to Dillon late in the game? He was never in. Maroney was in every play. Maroney is great and all but he was having a tough game against a great rush defense, it just wasnt working. Corey was running hard yet again and was very impressive but then suddenly he is taken out for a long time. Please tell me he got a minor injury or something because I was close to throwing my remote at the wall thinking that they had Corey out for no reason. The running game will get back on track. Maroney should have a field day vs the Bills again. Great to see our record at 4-1. Feels so much better than 3-2!
Nothing was officially said, but it appeared to this couch-fan that he'd dinged that sore shoulder again. He came off the field grimmacing and rotating the shoulder.
If he's hurt at all let him rest and stay fresh so when we actually need him....He'll be ready to go.
Is his shoulder dinged up? Who knows? If Patrick Pass takes that last open roster spot that would be telling.
I was wondering the same thing. Maroney wasn't having very mcuh success while Dillon was but they kept sticking with Maroney. If Dillon is dinged I hope he can get better during the week off. We need him against the faster defenses.

ABC News' Rachel Martin reports:
Twenty-two U.S. senators have signed a letter to President Obama denouncing his administration's decision to try the Christmas Day bomber, Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab, in civilian courts rather than through a military tribunal as a designated "enemy combatant."
The letter was spearheaded by Republican Sen. Saxby Chambliss, R-Ga., and supported by Sen. Jeff Sessions, R-Ala., ranking member on the Senate Judiciary Committee.
"We fear this decision has resulted in a missed opportunity to collect timely intelligence," the letter said, "and is indicative of a troubling pre-9/11 mentality that treats terrorism as a law enforcement rather than intelligence matter."
The senators said assigning Abdulmutallab an attorney after only 30 hours of questioning by the FBI amounted to a missed opportunity with potentially grave repercussions.
"Put simply," the letter said, "deciding to prosecute Abdulmutallab in a criminal court has limited our tools 'on the table' to offering a terrorist who tried to murder almost 300 passengers on a plane less time behind bars."
Among the signatories: Republican Sens. Kit Bond of Missouri, Orrin Hatch of Utah and Lindsey Graham of South Carolina.
Since 9/11, hundreds of terrorists have been convicted in civilian courts, including the so-called "shoe bomber" Richard Reid, who is now serving a life sentence in a maximum security detention facility.
You can read the letter HERE.

Patent application number | Title | Published |
20080209559 | Method for detecting that a protected software program is cracked - A method for determining if a software program having a protective envelope has been cracked, and signaling an indication thereof. A direct determination is made of whether the protective envelope is intact or has been compromised by an attack, without requiring a license violation to occur. Executable code in the protective envelope generates an envelope confirmation which is validated by executable code in the program itself. Any disabling or separation of the envelope from the program will be detectable by the program at validation time. Provisions are made for a secure envelope confirmation, the use of arguments as input to the confirmation generation, and for incorporating information related to the computer and user to facilitate identifying the attacker. Signaled indications can include network messaging to alert the licensor that the program has been cracked. | 08-28-2008 |
20080209558 | Self-defensive protected software with suspended latent license enforcement - A method and system of computer program modules for extending the cover time of protection for a licensed software product, by increasing the difficulty and time required for an attacker to produce a workable cracked version of the program. When an attack is detected, critical information about the effectiveness of the attack are withheld from the attacker by simulating the behavior of a cracked program, thereby inducing the attacker to prematurely consider the attack successful. Latent license enforcement features are provided, whose activation is suspended until predefined environmental conditions are met. | 08-28-2008 |
20080208754 | METHOD FOR DETECTING DUPLICATED INSTANCES OF A SOFTWARE LICENSE - A method for issuing and updating a software program license for a computer, with a unique identifier data object embedded in the computer and referenced by the license. The unique identifier may also be used with a conventional computer fingerprint. The software program does not run on a computer without a license that references the unique identifier. The license is issued via a server over a network (such as the Internet) and must be regularly updated by the server. When updating, the present unique identifier is sent to the server, to verify that the unique identifier is the latest unique identifier issued for that license. If an unauthorized copy is made for operation on an unlicensed computer, such as by cloning the licensed computer, this is detected when the second computer is updated, because the unique identifier sent with the update request is no longer current. | 08-28-2008 |

Score from 247 reviews
Great location, just minutes from Charles de Gaule etoile stop for all metro and RER (disneyland) connection. Got a good value deal, great as we were gone from the room most days. Comfy bed and powerful shower!
Small rooms with thin walls. Didn't try breakfast but seems expensive at €13
The staff are excellent, they are helpful and never gloomy. They helped us from knowing where to go to to eat and how to even take advantage of the Metro lines available. The room was comfortable and great value for money. In front of the Hotel exactly you will find a great restaurant for dinner. Quiet at night, though the cushions could be more comfortable.
The Wi-Fi was poor, but better than nothing.
The hotel was the best during our recent European trip. We booked a double superior and were upgraded to a suite. The staff was so helpful. Our cab dropped us at another hotel in the same street and the lady at the Reception sent her colleague to get one of our cases that we had left behind. They were helpful with everything, from booking cabs to telling us what's on and around. The young Srilankan waiter was so nice and attentive at breakfast on New Year's Day. Good job and I will highly recommend this hotel.
Breakfast price is a little bit steep
Service was excellent. Outstanding night audit staff. He made the difference. Keep him ta all coast.
Room was a bit small but ...
Location, tasty breakfast , staff.very good presur of water and temperature..
Wifi and small bathroom and small restaurant..
Lovely staff, they were very helpful particularly as I do not speak French. First class service and I will be using this Hotel in the future.
It's easy to overhear guests in neighbouring rooms.
-Good Location - Walking distance to Arc De Triomph and Champ Elysees -Free Breakfast with limited selection. - Free Wifi - English speaking friendly staff
- Bathroom too narrow but with the price is still value of money. - Lift a little bit too narrow to fit in more than one people if you are travelling with big luggage
The bed is very good. Eventhough the room is small, which is normal in Paris, you have a nice bed, a big tv et a nice bathroom.
The rooms are quite small and not very well noise isolated.
Easy access to shops, restaurants and transport, and proximity to Champs Elyssees.
Lack of views.
Hotel was located good, walking distance from champs-elysees and arc de triumph and civil transport.
The lack of hygene in the rooms is dissapointing. They dont change sheets and towels. And it was the smallest place i have ever been to.. 8m2 room is something i can never suggest. And theres no view.
Location- 250m from the Arc!. Bus to airport Early check in was available. Restaurants nearby Safe to walk alone
Wifi a bit slow
Everything. The location, near to place of interest, safe and easy located. The staff, friendly, helpful, thoughtful. We were slightly late for the check out, but the lady receptionist was so smiling and assuring us not to worry. When we need to sit down and past time for our train, they even offer us coffee and juice. The check in with the male receptionist was smooth and he was really helpful and providing us with information. The room, clean and new. Even the cleaning lady is always smiling and despite we are unable to communicate, the smile make my day.
Nothing, else we will not stay for the second time.
- Really clean hotel room - Comfortable room - Excellent position for tourism in paris with access to the subway line 1 at less than 4min - Did not tried the breakfast so no opinion on it.
- Room was a little bit small for 2 but for paris it was really comfortable
Check in was OUTSTANDING and very friendly, Even Late in the evening.best Price/Performance and very close to Camp Élysée and Airport Shuttle every 30 min. Close by, just 300m

Room very noisy due to bathroom ventilator not switching off with bathroom light switch. Impossible to sleep because of it. Better check it on arrival!!

Staff is very helpful to your questions! The breakfast is very reasonably price and is good.
Very close to the Arch of Triumph (3-5 min). Quite street, very good place for sleep. Staff is very friendly and professional, no prejudices to english speaking tourists, ready to help in all questions. Breakfast is normal for 3* hotel (fresh fruits, baking, boiled eggs, omelette, bacon and frankfurters) There are some nice restautants around with tasty food.
Rooms are quite small, but for weekend its ok.
