excellent stay!

i found the staff uniformly really good, really friendly, professional and hospitable. breakfast was delicious, with a good selection and high quality food. the location was ideal, it's just off place graslin. the bed was very comfortable too.

the available storage for clothes was minimal, i noted a lack of hanging space and no drawers. i imagine the setup is primarily for short or business stays.

helpful stafflocal attractionsexcellent selectionbicycle storage

I found the staff helpful, offering superb advice on local attractions and transport. They were really nice to. The location proved convenient, allowing quick access to various restaurants and sites. Breakfast was a good experience, with an excellent selection, enough to last until a late lunch. I also had no problem with bicycle storage. It was secure and easy to access.

The bathroom exhaust fan seemed ineffective. It didn't remove humidity well after showers, leaving the space a bit damp.

My recent visit had some issues. The room I stayed in felt quite cramped. It was also too warm. The small fan didn't help much. The lack of air conditioning made it uncomfortable (especially during warmer days).
