Une nuit en famille parfaite. Merci Lina!
Pros:

- La taille du logement
- La propreté
- Les équipements
- Le petit-déjeuner copieux

Et la cerise sur le gâteau: La réceptionniste, Lina, gentille, bienveillante, qui a pris le temps de bien nous conseiller et nous orienter. Une telle personne dans un hôtel relève encore le niveau de celui-ci.

Ne changez rien!

Cons:

Rien de négatif.

I would recommend as a business inn. It’s quite adequate and well appointed for business travellers.
Pros:

In included breakfast was good, better than expected. The room was well appointed, but a little dated. Bathrooms were clean.

Cons:

Carpets were quite dated. Front lobby a bit functional, but not inviting.
