Pour une virée rouennaise idéale.
Pros:

La gentillesse du personnel en charge de la réception, la proximité du centre historique et le charme un peu désuet de l’établissement. Un hôtel « à l’ancienne » où nous aurons grand plaisir à revenir.

Cons:

Absolument rien.

Agréable séjour
Pros:

Un accueil chaleureux, la chambre était propre peut être un peu vieillotte mais ça restait charmant.
Lit confortable et petites attentions comme des bouteilles d’eau etc qui font plaisir après avoir fait de la route.
Super localisation en plein centre

Cons:

Le pommeau de douche à besoin d’être remplacé mais rien de grave.
Attention le petit déjeuner n’est pas compris.

Very good! Recommend it.
Pros:

The room (facing the backyard, very tranquil) was very well equipped, spacious, and the bed was very comfortable.
The location was great, in the historical city center and walkable distance to pretty much all interesting places to visit.
Accessible to public transports, as well.
I tried the breakfast on my last day, and it was very good; well served, presented and the abundant options/products seemed of good quality.

Cons:

Nothing
