Attempted to use BB link but the wifi zone blocks the PRICELINE link from redirecting.

Good price in comparison to the $273 p/nt charged for the same time period.
There is nothing like a LARGE room (by American standards) in Paris however, this hotel does have larger rooms (by EU standards) and space between beds. When I was there they gave me two twin beds (singles).
The hotel is nice with good health club and there is an elevated subway directly outside. The railroad (RER) from the airport is about 1/2 mile away.
There are wonderful breakfast places and a mall if you exit the lobby and walk to the right for about 5-10 minutes. I mention this because most people would never venture past the Metro station but keep going and enjoy the local landscape.
Correction to prior post - my winning bid amount was $68USD and started at 60.
Apparently, not adjusting to time zone correctly.
Bid 68 and a/i amount $89.69

Airport hotels are NEVER full unless a major irrep (cancel or weather) so probably best to wait until closer to the date. The other part of the equation - if major weather or cancellation you probably won't make it to airport hotel or won't fly out the morning of scheduled departure.
