Nice hotel.
Pros:

Breakfast was very good. Staff was pleasant. Room was good sized and comfortable. Very good location close to town. Easy walking.

Cons:

Third single bed seemed sloped, but fortunately we didn't have to use it. Did not have a hair dryer in room.

Pros:

Le charme du quartier et la décoration de la chambre soignée mélangeant modernité et histoire

Cons:

Chambre avec une petite mezzanine que nous n'avons pas utilisée et qui justifiait peut être le prix un peu élevé de la chambre. Très peu de place pour les bagages . La fenêtre laissait passer l'air et le bruit de la rue. Pas de bouteille d'eau dans la chambre ce qui est encore un peu décevant vu le prix de celle -ci

Overall, not too bad of an experience.
Pros:

Got a fairly convenient location to the rest of the city and didn’t take long to get where you needed to go. You might have to open the windows at night if it gets too hot cause there are no air-conditioning in those rooms., Heat only.

Cons:

No, AC, that rained that night was real humid in the room.

Der beste schlaff die ich je hatte.
Pros:

Das Bett war es wie im Himmel zu schweben. Person war auch sehr Nett und Hilfsbereit. Frühstück habe ich leider nicht erleben dürfen, weil ich sonst mein Flug verpasst hätte. Ich hätte sie aber gerne Probiert.

Ich glaube aber, ich habe noch nie so gut geschlafen wie hier :) vor allem wegen des Betts.

Cons:

Der Badezimmer war leider SEHR kalt, Schlafen oder kleine fände ich noch sehr fein. Ansonsten hat alles gepasst.
