Pour l’emplacement mais dispendieux.
Pros:

Très bien situé près du quartier historique. Chambres et douche relativement petites.

Cons:

Personnel à l’accueil en soirée très guindé. En revanche le placier sur le stationnement était très agréable.

Excellent location… Friendly and helpful staff… Comfortable and clean rooms!!
Pros:

Excellent location!! The staff was friendly and helpful!! The room was comfortable and clean!! We did a lot of sightseeing and this was by far the best location to be able to walk and not need to move your car. Highly recommend!!

Cons:

The only thing about this property that we did not like was the fact that we were on the second floor and had to carry our bags up a flight of steps, but we arrived early (hours before scheduled check in) and the room was ready so we took it. I’m sure if we had waited they would’ve accommodated us to a first floor room. But we were so anxious to drop our bags and start exploring that we did not want to wait. But honestly, there was nothing that we did not like about this property!
