Nice hotel to stay for a few days
Pros:

Nice location, the hotel is easily accessible. The room was spacious and clean with a nice rooftop terrace. Also, a special mention to Omar, the manager, for his hospitality and work.

Cons:

Small issue with the water during the first day of my stay, got fixed quite rapidly and a minor inconvenience.

Paisible et agréable idéal pour un court séjour
Pros:

le quartier et l’hôtel sont très calmes, ce qui est appréciable. Le quartier est très sécurisé et l’hôtel aussi il y a des caméras à l’intérieur.
L’accueil a été exceptionnel, avec un personnel très disponible qui nous a aidés à trouver des taxis. La literie est également très confortable , chambre spacieuse et grande salle de bain.

Cons:

L’emplacement n’est pas idéal : peu de restaurants à proximité, transports difficiles les taxis ne passe pas à proximité et peu d’activités touristiques autour, chambre un peu humide

Pros:

Sh. meine Bewertung vom 15.12. 1.Aufenthalt ....
Alles gleich, außer dass das Zimmer nun 1/2 Größe hatte. Ein Sofa fehlte ebenso. Manager verschob freundlicherweise auf Anfrage meinen check-out um 2 Stunden, da die Fähre erst abends startet.

Cons:

Alles gut...., allerdings hatte die Matratze eine "Welle". Links/rechts der Mitte war eingelegen, die Mitte höher. Etwas unbequem...
