Personnel sympathique mais très mauvais rapport qualité-prix
Pros:

Personnel très sympathique. Très bon emplacement dans la ville.

Cons:

Installations vieillissantes. Le design est vieux avec de la moquette usée. Il n y a pas de lobby où prendre un verre dans la hall de l'hôtel. Une fois le canapé-lit déplié, pas de place pour s'installer dans la chambre familiale très mal insonorisée. Les installations de la chambre ne correspondent pas au standing. Meuble en verre pas pratique, bouilloire sans prise à côté difficile d'accès. Pas d'ascenseur. Je ne paierais pas plus de 130chf pour cette chambre familiale.
