The hotel was a bit dated but it met our needs for one night. The staff was friendly and helpful and the breakfast was cheap and satisfying.

Good value but bear in mind it may not suit all
Lives up to the name with the location. No lift and no Aircon so bear this in mind but that is reflected in the cost. Decent breakfast. Parked my motorcycle across the road on the Place. Loads of nearby bars and restaurants.

Comfortable stay with good breakfast
Comfortable stay in this centrally located hotel within walking distance of tourist attractions. Self service breakfast was more than sufficient.

Fair hotel close to the center and congress center
Good, simple two-star hotel. Rooms and interiors are renovated, although some old pieces remain (heating). Breakfast was fairly good. Lobby and concierge are closed at night. Rooms are a little cold in winter. All in all, fair hotel close to the city center and congress center. Also conveniently close to the bus stop to the airport. Train station is 15 minutes away (downhill). Wifi a little slow.

Old fashioned hotel in central city location
As clean as one would wish - but a bit shabby (doubtless due to age). Very convienently located. Breakfasts OK

Lorsque que j'ai quitté l'hôtel le dimanche 22 septembre 2024 vers 18h j'ai posé la carte de ma chambre n°6. Je signale que je pars Un jour à l'avance. le réceptionniste me dit qu'il faut quand même que je paie ma chambre. je lui répond qu'il devrait vérifier son registre car j'ai déjà payé les deux nuits lorsque je suis arrivée la veille c'est à dire le samedi 21. Je n'ai pas du tout apprécié le ton sur lequel on m'a parlé. Je ne me suis jamais barrée sans payer quelque soit l'hôtel où je dors et je n'ai pas demandé le remboursement de la deuxième nuit où je n'étais plus là.

Hébergement très calme et confortable.
Chambre très agréable et calme, avec une salle de bain parfaitement fonctionnelle, précédée d'un surprenant petit couloir amusant. Décoration discrète et agréable, l'ensemble a été très propice au repos ! Très bonne expérience...
