I found a decent hotel under the Ibis brand in Nanterre Paris. Is this too far from Paris proper, or will I have access to a metro from there? I am posting a link. It is the Ibis Paris Nanterre. Let me know what you think. Also, there are several hotels in 15-17. If anyone is familiar with those and their proximity to ground transporation I would appreciate it.
Alternately, this seems to be a better location:

The site wouldn't work for your first listing but the second is near Metro stops. It looks to be in one of the outer neighborhoods but still in Paris proper. By Metro, you're close to everything.
