Bon rapport qualité-prix, au printemps !
Chambre propre et ordinaire. Nettoyage sur demande avant 9h00 le matin. Malgre des journées fraîches, très chaud dans la chambre. Ca doit être difficile durant l'été. Mais tres bien situé.

Perfect location to what we needed
It is very close to interchange, which is a huge plus point
First flight if steps to reception is a bit inconvenient, but we managed ok
Shame no breakfast offered
Very clean but in need of a bit of modernism

It is very basic but does what it says on the tin. The heating was on & there was plenty of hot water in the showers. There is a pool table in the hotel & a bar next door to the hotel. It is right in the centre of the city & only two minutes walk from the railway station. It ticks most boxes for me.

The Gilson Hotel
The radiators were bouncing, the hot water was plentiful. The bed linen was clean and fresh.
Decor was tired in the room and bathroom, but it was clean. The tea cups were chipped - but I had my own.
It could get a little noisy in the corridors in the evenings but settled down by half nine ish.
The receptionist, Johnathan, was friendly & helpful. Thank you
