The location. Comfort and cleanliness of the room. Prompt response from the property manager.

Good location but no hospitality, no staff, steep steps.
Pros:

Great location.

Cons:

There are no staff. No-one. It is the opposite of hospitality. No-one to have a chat with or share advice. There are long steep flights of stairs to all but 3 of the rooms. There are very few amenities in the rooms - a handful of coffee pods.

Pros:

la localisation de l'hotel et les lits etaient confortable

Cons:

Très déçu par mon séjour dans cet établissement. La douche était complètement défectueuse (pas d’eau chaude, tuyauterie qui fuyait), rendant impossible toute utilisation correcte. De plus, l’une des serviettes sentait fortement la cigarette, au point d’embaumer toute la chambre. Les prises électriques étaient également très dangereuses, sorties du mur avec les câbles apparents.

Bad experience
Pros:

Was central

Cons:

60 stairs to climb,
No chain inside to lock the door from outside.
Bath tube water stopper was not the right size.
No desk or table.

No parking available and in the website booking it was mentioned on the 3 columb in small letters. I got a confirmation 2 days before mentioning no parking. Went i want to cancel from booking website it said I was not able and I loose my money. It was -28c with wind -38c. Five minutes walk to the parking was very hard at 63y in my condition with asmah in this extreme cold.

If I had know about the stare and parking I will never had reserved it. In english in booking website it is mention Hotel lachouette in the beginning. I was thinking that to have the name hotel you need a parking and elevator. I never guest that appartement 8 was on the third floor but appartement 10,11 and 12 was on the first floor.

For all those restrictions we should be able to cancel went we find out about it.

I was there for a funeral so it didn't help for the pain of loosing a 40 years friend.

I call and talk to someone in charge of the hotel lachouette and found he was not very friendly and cooperative to help me

Pros:

As camas eram boas

Cons:

Não conseguimos dormir a noite, dava pra ouvir todo o barulho da rua e dos quartos ao redor, o mínimo barulho como uma flatulência no quarto ao lado ouvíamos no nosso, não tinha isolamento acústico algum
