Au secours
Pros:

Le jus d'orange lol

Cons:

Hôtel vide de personnel et non chalance, pas d'eau chaude, p'tit déj tt sec, passage au milieu des travaux, drap en guise de nappe, matelas qui fait trop mal au dos, ascenseur qui fait penser à une attraction, même pour rentrer il faut appeler avec son téléphone un numéro en journée. A fuir, jamais vu ça

Douche froide
Pros:

J'ai beaucoup aimé pouvoir brancher ma voiture électrique durant la nuit sur une borne 22kW (pour 20€ de parking avec la charge comprise).

Le literie était très confortable.

Cons:

J'ai dû mettre l'eau à couler dans la douche pendant près de 5 min pour avoir de l'eau tiède et l'eau chaude n'est arrivée qu'à la fin de ma douche ! Le plus surprenant, c'est la réponse de l'accueil à ce sujet : "c'est normal : il y a peu de monde dans l'hôtel en ce moment et vous étiez au 4ème étage". Donc, mon conseil : réservez au 1er étage !!

Même si cela ne m'a pas dérangée, j'aurais préféré savoir avant de venir que l'hôtel est en travaux.
