Pros:

Le personnel est très serviable. Le tram à proximité pour se rendre au centre ville est pratique.

Cons:

Le parking est très petit et aucune réservation n'est possible. C'est la règle du premier arrivé, premier servi, ce qui a compliqué notre séjour. La rue est bruyante et nous avons dû dormir les fenêtres ouvertes car il faisait très chaud dans la chambre.

Excellent but not as good as yesteryear!
Pros:

Position and convenience.

Cons:

The restaurant was no longer functioning (since Covid) but we had memories of its excellence prior to that - which was part of our reason to stay
