Well located and clean near the cathedral
Pros:

Due to the proximity to the cathedral, you will hear the bells every 15 minutes all night long, which I didn't mind, but some would. Lovely terrace for breakfast and rooms are equipped with fans, which was appreciated.

Séjour en centre ville près de la cathédrale
Pros:

La situation, l’architecture, le personnel et la propreté.

Cons:

Établissement qui n’est pas climatisé. Un ventilateur découvert au troisième jour du séjour dans un placard.
Prévoir des bouchons d’oreille si vous êtes sensible au bruit.
