Nicht noch einmal!
Pros:

Sie war günstig. Das Personal war freundlich und Hilfsbereit.

Cons:

Sehr verwohnt und runtergekommen. Es wirkt wie ein zwielichtiges Stundenhotel.
Der Parkplatz ist eine Katastrophe und ungefähr einen halben Kilometer entfernt.
Der Aufzug wirkt nicht vertrauenswürdig!
Das Bett war so alt, dass ich extrem eingesunken bin und deshalb war die Nacht katastrophal!!
Zum Glück Waren wir auf der Durchreise und nur eine Nacht dort!

refaire les sdb, je fréquente l’hôtel depuis 4 ou 5 ans et le quartier est tombé dans le trafic de rue et un sentiment d’insécurité c'est regrettable vu son emplacement à 10 mn à pied de place Bellecour
