Cons:

Le fait que mon mari et mon fils n'aient pas pu prendre leur petit déjeuner au-delà de 10h30 alors que l'accueil nous a
informés qu'il est servi jusqu'à 11h le matin. Arrivés vers 10h ils ont dû remonter dans la chambre à 10h30 n'ayant plus de choix. Je devais prendre mon petit déjeuner aussi le lendemain j'ai préféré aller le prendre ailleurs. Quant à eux, ils n'y sont pas retournés le lendemain aussi

Good value for money
Pros:

It is the quality of a Novotel, you know what you get. The restaurant had nice food, very practical when you are away from town. The room would be spacious for one or two people, more space than what you get in town. But for a family, it’s a bit tight. We had breakfast one morning only. Was a good breakfast, not huge, but good quality items and enough variety. Great size bathroom and shower.

Cons:

We had a family room and two of us slept on the single sofa beds. Those weren’t very confortable, which you would expect from a good sofa bad in a hotel chain like this. Unfortunately, the hotel doesn’t seem to have option of single beds instead of queen bed. Location is about 20-25 min from town, but you get better price and more space, and there’s a tram direct into town. Breakfast was a bit expensive in my opinion.
