Trop de bruit la nuit à mon goût pour un hôtel
Pros:

Le design, les chambres, la réception et salle à manger, l’emplacement ..

Cons:

Le bruit de fêtes dans la salle du bas qui vous empêche de dormir même avec des boules quies .. à priori il y en a assez souvent .. il semblerait que ce soit une salle de fêtes indépendante de l’hôtel

Aussi j’ai dû partir un jour plus tôt et il n’ont pas accepté de faire un geste commercial pour cela. Pas très commercial comme approche du client.

Même si l’endroit et le design sont sympas je ne reviendrais pas à cause du bruit la nuit.

Good and cozy
Pros:

Nice design, good vibe, cheap parking (8€ per day). Very nice asian restaurants near the hotel. Station for U-ban (U3 metro) is very near and you can go everywhere. Everything is self service.

Cons:

Small rooms, if you have two big suitcase you can not open in on the flor. Small closet, you can not put all staff for two person in it. If somebody prefers, just to know buy water for room - there is no mini bars in the rooms. Breakfast is not that good for that money (40€ for two), you can eat on the next corner for less than 40€ for two. If you like more help from the staff do not choose this hotel, c-in and c-out is self service (you need to do it by your own). Also, something was buzzing on the TV extension cable, so we turned off the TV. If you are not that conformist, and just need clean and cool rooms, this is perfect hotel for you.

Sehr zentrale Lage, Frühstück für alle etwas dabei, sehr ruhig
