Perfect for a long weekend break
Pros:

The hotel is very central and just a short walk away from the centre, for shops, restaurants and bars. Breakfast was good with plenty to choose from. Rooms were a reasonable size and kept clean by housekeeping.

Cons:

Our room was very hot, which unfortunately the air conditioning was not able to get cool.

Bonne localisation. Excellent petit déjeuner, très varié au rooftop.

Cons:

Rue très bruyante, même fenêtres fermées. Circulation tout au long de la nuit même si moins dense qu'en journée, mais il y a tout le temps du bruit.
