room size is small, yet, rest of good things made the size issue negligible - for couples
Pros:

Breakfast was like Home prepared food. It was tasty and good. Because we had to leave for our other visits very early, we felt bad in missing this good homely b/f couple of days.

Cons:

room size/ bathroom tap in the sink is facing the bathroom door so, the force of water throws it to the door - which is not good.

Pros:

Location, cleanliness of the room

Cons:

Bathroom wash basin was leaking and water all over the floor. TV remote didn’t work in one of the rooms. Rooms were not given together and were in different floors.

Check out timing were strict and didn’t allow even an hour extension even though I checked in an hour or so late.

Très décevant, ne correspond pas du tout à une note 8,3
Pros:

Rien

Cons:

La chambre est petite certes mais avec une fenêtre qui ne s ouvre pas est oppressante.
Traces de moisissures sur le mur au dessus du lit . Ménage qui laisse à désirer ( sous le lit ).

La clé peut ouvrir toutes les chambres , pas prudent.
Aucun équipement de toilettes uniquement le gel douche qui est un savon main.
Le petit déjeuner est quasi inexistant: 3 plats Indiens , pain de mie et confiture , kfe. Pas de thé, ni d œuf et aucun fruit , un comble ici. Le personnel de service très peu aimable ,sans sourire rien .
