We loved our stay here. Place was really clean and tidy. Location was perfect as it could walk to most of the places. We also got upgraded to a suite. Would highly recommend this place.

Très agéable et emplacement très pratique; possibilité de faire beaucoup de chose à pieds ou en bus.
Pros:

Emplacement idéal. Hôtel calme. Chambre plutôt petite mais très confortable.

Cons:

Petite incompréhension sur le petit déjeuner qui n'était pas inclus dans le prix de la chambre et qui demandait à être réservé la veille. Nous avons trouvé facilement une solution ailleurs même si l'hôtel nous a proposé une solution alternative.

Seulement si le lieu est adéquat
Pros:

Proche Saint Jean

Cons:

Chambre exiguë, odeurs d'égouts dans la salle de bain, petit déjeuner insipide et le sentiment de déranger l'unique et peu présente personne d'accueil.
