The hotel is fine for people on low budget bus tours, who are happy with mediocre breakfasts, but it lacks any local culture and is located in a boring part of town, but staff were friendly and there was nothing horrible about the place.

The drain in my shower didn’t work and the water flooded the bathroom floor. I had to stop the shower after a few seconds and then wash an arm and a meg at a time. It was frustrating. I think the hotel should discount my stay.

The hotel is dated and looks a little worn. But the best part was the incredible staff that helped make sure our stay was great. Without the staff this would have been a 3 star review.

Very good stay with excellent staff

Overall a great stay….except the breakfast we paid 10 euros each for the worst food on our travels,scrambled egg must of been an hour old you couldn’t put your knife into the sausage,the bacon looked like cut up scraps overall very poor not worth 1euro , shame really the staff, room and hotel were great.

Decent

The rooms are fairly new though are starting to show some wear and tear. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The breakfast was not worth the money, there's a great bakery around the corner and it's cheaper. Overall, it was what I paid for, nothing more, nothing less.

Good hotel but beware. I prepaid through Expedia but when I checked in they asked for a $67 “deposit” for damages that was supposed to be credited back to my acct. They ended up keeping this money. I have called three times and three times I’ve been told by Phil that I would get an email and the cash returned to my card but I haven’t received anything. No email, no refund. Even worse is that I have to pay for the calls from the US to France to try to solve this. Beware!
