Niet aan te bevelen
Pros:

Bedden waren goed

Cons:

Oude kleine kamer, terwijl de receptie en hal er modern en goed uitzagen.
Eenvoudig ontbijt, weinig keuze in brood. Ontbijten in de hal bij de receptie.
Alleen een paar harde stukken stokbrood wat niet aangevuld werd.
Waterige koffie.
Schoonmaakpersoneel liep langs de ontbijttafels met emmertjes sop om de kamers schoon te maken en weer terug.
Niet zo fris.

Très confort si l'attention à la propreté est prise en compte (poussière, bouilloire..))
Pros:

Le confort : bouilloire, mouchoirs en papier, sèche cheveux mirroir grossissants un vrai plus pour les femmes, une douche spacieuse porte étanche et bien chaude, des serviettes qui sentent bons, grand miroir et lumière, literie très confortable, moquette très bien, miroir à l'entrée, parking facile d'accès et gratuit, parties communes soignée et personnel à l'écoute et chaleureux ! Chambre bien insonorisée, nous n'entendions pas les passages très fréquents des voitures, ce qui a contribué à des nuits calmes et reposantes. Petit café/the offert avec gobelets et sucre s très appréciable ! Le mobilier en très bon état et globalement propre (excepté la note ci-dessous) et une chasse d'eau efficace ! J'aurais apprécié une décoration plus colorée comme sur les photos mais comme le confort y était, ça passe tout de même.

Cons:

À notre arrivée, nous avons découvert la bouilloire remplie d'eau on suppose , le liquide était assez blanc de calcaire, la télécommande de la climatisation très poussiéreux et malheureusement le pouf et tables de chevets et rebord au mur de la table principale : tous recouverts de poussière qui donnait l'impression d'une chambre à l'abandon , c''est dommage. Un rouleau de papier toilette vide était resté dans son support. Nous avons dû descendre à l'accueil afin de montrer cela. Le personnel y a remédier de suite avec coup de chiffon et bouilloire bien nettoyée.
