Pros:

It was basic but comfy with everything you need for a short stay. The room was very spacious and quiet. Good position for a walk around and between many attractions. Very helpful and friendly staff.

Cons:

It would be better for the staff to speak a little bit of proper french or english, because depending on who was there, it was quite difficult to have info and communicate with them in general.
Better to close the doors while serving breakfast cause with that current at 9 in the morning it was a bit chilly.

とても親切で迅速な対応
Pros:

スタッフがみんな笑顔で非常に親切。初めての土地のホテルで色々勝手がわからず色々と質問したりお願いしたことがあったけどいつも迅速かつ丁寧に対応してくれました。

Cons:

これはホテルの責任ではないけど、滞在中配水管が裂けて1日だけお湯が出なかった。
しかしこれもすぐに直してくれ翌日には人生史上最高の湯量、水圧のシャワーだった。

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
