Très bien situé dans Lyon mais attention au parking !
Pros:

Très bien situé, personnel très accueillant et serviable, climatisation efficace en chambre.

Cons:

Cet hôtel est présenté comme ayant un parking ce qui est faux. Il nous a fallu aller se garer dans un parking situé à 10minutes (sous une chaleur de 42 degrés) et surtout, qui nous a coûté 60 euros pour 24h !!

While the location is great and the bed is comfortable unfortunately I have to rate the room I was provided at 3 stars a
Pros:

Centrally located and staff were friendly.

Cons:

No real amenities aside from towels and washer liquids in the room. Everything else has to be asked for.
Room was not clean in the bathroom including mould on shower heads and dirty toilet. Aircon also made a lot of vibration noise at med to high setting. Also caused allergy which tells me it is needing a filter clean.

While comfortable bed, facilities in the room can do with major fix and clean / update . Lobby certainly looks good but room is cramped and has two chairs but not somewhere to put luggage easily and had to move things around to make room. Also no luggage stand so had to put on floor.

I was ready to provide this feedback in person but at checkout the staff did not ask me how things were and seemed to not have time for a conversation.

Great value, friendly staff, and an excellent location.
Pros:

Excellent value for money, very friendly staff, a nice restaurant and bar, and an excellent location. I only stayed one night in a solo room while travelling through, so I did not spend much time there, but overall it was a very good stay.

Cons:

The solo room was quite basic but it was very clean and perfectly fine for a short stay.
