Emplacement au centre historique, proche des commodités.

Cons:

La chambre manque d'entretien technique, rideaux et tissus de la tête de lit déchirés, boules lumière au dessus de la baignoire cassés. porte de la salle d'eau qui grince à chaque mouvement. Sol de douche glissant. Climatisation bruyante.
