Pros:

Liked the pool even though it was freezing. Also particularly liked the breakfast/bar staff.
Good location for town, old town and bus

Cons:

The receptionists (well some) continually seemed to shout across the room at each other so much so you could not sit in the lobby.
No clothes drying rack

Pros:

Qualité de l'accueil, la chambre proposée (surclassement), la propreté de la chambre et de l'hôtel, la qualité du petit déjeuner et l'emplacement qui permet de découvrir La Cannes sans avoir besoin de prendre la voiture.
Tout était parfait.

Cons:

Rien !

Pros:

Місцерозташування
Прибирання

Cons:

Звукоізоляція жахлива. Було чути все з сусіднього номера. Навіть дихання сусідів вночі

Двері на балкон не відчинялись

Адміністрація відмовила в ранньому засееленні ( приїхав в готель в 11.00 a.m.) хоч знала що я не буду ночувати другу ніч і виїду з номера на 15год раніше

Адміністрація відмовила мені в сніданку в 11.00 a.m. в день приїзду за додаткову плату ( в них сніданки до 10.30) хоча в 11.00 іще люди снідали в ресторані) Хоча Адміністрація знала що другу ніч я не буду ночувати в готелі і відповідно другий сніданок в мене пропав.

The soundproofing was terrible. You could hear everything from the next room—even the neighbors breathing at night.

The balcony door wouldn't open.

Management refused an early check-in (I arrived at the hotel at 11:00 AM), even though they knew I wouldn't be staying a second night and would be checking out 15 hours early.

Management refused to serve me breakfast at 11:00 AM on the day of my arrival for an extra fee (breakfast service ends at 10:30 AM), even though people were still eating in the restaurant at 11:00 AM. This was despite the fact that management knew I wouldn't be staying the second night, meaning I was effectively forfeiting my second breakfast.

Good standard hotel in an excellent location
Pros:

Great location walking distance between the city and main town beach

Pool is nice although not too many sunbeds and people leave towels and disappear

Cons:

A little bit of construction over the road but not the property’s fault

Pros:

Great central location, with many tourist attractions, restaurants, and dinner options within walking distance. The breakfast was also very good with a nice variety of options.

Cons:

The only downside was the parking situation, as parking was not guaranteed and there was limited space available on the street. Apart from that, we had a very pleasant stay.
