The location is good, close to the train station and not far from the main points of interest. The staff is great. Breakfast was ok, although limited. The property condition was under our expectations. The room that we were assigned (for three people) was ok, but the washroom was tiny and the distribution was very inconvenient. The room did not have a place to connect the Europe to North America plug adaptor, except for one in the washroom where there was zero space to put the phones, etc. Overall not a good value for money and way under our expectations.

Le problème principal est que l'annonce semble dire qu'un parking intérieur est disponible. Ceci n'est pas vrai. La solution proposée est un parking payant a plus de 12min à pied ou un service de voiturier à 32€. Nous avons été très déçu.

ちょっと古すぎるかも。駅チカを優先したのでこのホテルになったが、値段の割にはチープだった。部屋をまず作ってその後部屋の一角に無理やり浴室をつけた感じ。ちょっと気分がそがれた。荷物はチェックアウト後も快く預かってくれた。
