Cons:

We didn't stay, room was dirty and parking was in a multistory and advised that cars had been damaged and not to park there. So cancelled and went elsewhere

perfekte Lage, guter Service
Pros:

Die Freundlichkeit von Michel an der Reception war beeindruckend und hat uns positiv überrascht. Da wir mit dem Fahrrad unterwegs waren, hat er unkompliziert nach Lösungen gesucht und uns perfekt unterstützt. Wir kommen gerne wieder.

Cons:

Die Zimmer, und vor allem die Dusche sind sehr klein

Bien situado pero no es un hotel de 4 estrellas. Es un hotel de 2 estrella
Pros:

La ubicación

Cons:

Pedimos una habitación con dos camas y era una sola cama de matrimonio. La calle estaba de obras y a las 7 am ya no se podía seguir durmiendo.
Creo que el hotel debería haber avisado ya que el ruido era insoportable

Cons:

Ma chambre au premier étage donnait sur les travaux de la Place de la gare ce qui rendait la vue désagréable tandis que le bruit des machines était insupportable! Un geste raisonnable eut été de proposer prioritairement des chambres à l'arrière, ou de prévenir le client ou pourquoi pas de lui fournir des boules Quies.
