Chambre correcte, parking fermé disponible
Hôtel correcte avec parking fermée. Chambre spacieuse, grand lit confortable. Dommage que les chambres devant sont un peu bruillantes avec le tram et le ramassage poubelles. Restaurations a proximité.

Séjour professionnel
Hotel bien. Horaires de la réception limités.
J’ai souhaité réserver un autre sejour, à la suite de celui-ci : le tarif avait augmenté de plus de 40% "c’est la loi de l’offre et la demande" m’a-t-on répondu ! Pas très correct.

God oplevelse
Vi (2 voksne og 2 teenagere) havde 1 overnatning i hotellets familieværelse for andet år i træk og alt var super. Værelset var rent, rummeligt og med en fantasktisk altan med byudsigt. Hotellet ligger i gåafstand til centrum ca. 10 minutter og der ligger et fint supermarked lige nede af gaden. Morgenmaden var super fin til prisen og man kan tilkøbe parkering i parkeringshus i samme bygning. Eneste minus er at ingen kan snakke engelsk, men sådan er det desværre mange steder i Frankrig. Alt i alt en god oplevelse og hotellet kan anbefales.
