Pros:

Hôtel un peu vieillissant, situé à l’extérieur du centre-ville, non loin de l’aéroport local. Chambres correctes et salles de bain rénovées. Le plus : le jacuzzi extérieur et le petit-déjeuner inclus, assez complet.

Cons:

Décoration un peu "particulière" (animaux empaillés). Personnel un peu trop discret…

Thank you, thank you!
Pros:

We were coming in super late and were worried we wouldn't get to check in because it was going to be like 2am by the time we got there. No one responded on booking messages but when we got there, someone had our room key in an envelope on the check-in desk. BLESS. Bed was more comfortable than where we had stayed the previous 3 nights. Quirky inside but nice and lots of see.

Cons:

I literally couldn't figure out how to get the soap to pump, so I ended up taking the cap off instead.
The faucet jiggled around a bit.
My boyfriend thought the bed was hard but it felt nicer to me than the previous stays we had.

I don't know if we just got the wrong room, I hope there are much fewer faults in the others :)
Pros:

Great location and amenities. Friendly staff. Very good breakfast.

Cons:

At the beginning of our stay, our room was prepared for one person, not four. Of course, the friendly receptionists immediately corrected the mistake. Two lights in the room (those above the beds) weren't working, and the bathroom light was constantly flickering. The light sockets by the window were literally falling out of their housings, and the cleanliness of the mirrors left much to be desired. the shower pressure was terrible! Overall, after 15 minutes, our white socks were gray. Unfortunately, the room wasn't clean enough for the price we paid.

Leider nicht wie erwartet.
Pros:

Das Personal war freundlich, genügend Parkplätze, WLan war schnell genug für streaming.

Cons:

Hellhörig, extrem weiche Matratze, Wasser wird ewig nicht warm, unter Gartenblick (siehe Bild) versteht wohl jeder etwas anderes, Deckenplatten im recht kleinen Bad hatten braune Ränder, Garderobe hing defekt von der Wand. Beim auschecken kein Personal so das man seine Punkte nicht anbringen konnte.
