Impossible de dormir et très vétuste À éviter
Pros:

Rien

Cons:

Le bruit de l’autoroute sur laquelle donnait la chambre : impossible de dormir, escalier très vétuste et salle de bains partagée très vétuste. Chambres bruyantes de l’une à l’autre : on entend tout. Prix exhorbitant pour une qualité 1 étoile au maximum. Très mauvaise communication et peu de réactivité à l’arrivée

No valen.lo que cobran
Pros:

La ubicación,.la cafetera y la pava en la habitaciones están ok, aunque o enchufas una o la otra!

Cons:

El hotel solo vale por la ubicación, el desayuno no está incluído, el tema de la habitaciones es todo un verso. Contratamos nuna premium nos pusieron en una común y nos dijieron que esa era la que tocaba. Después de discutir un rato nos cambiaron. Encargamos unas maletas por Amazon, llegaron al hotel y estaban "desaparecidas" hasta después de un largo rato de elevar el tono de la conversación y
aparecieron misteriosamente en un lugar que no debían..Colchón vencido!

Superb location but overpriced for what you get
Pros:

The staff were super friendly and the location is perfect!

Cons:

The bathroom is outdated and needs some renovations. No shower pressure as well. It does not really worth the price.

Pros:

The location was perfect.

The hotel was clean.

I was not notified when my room was ready

The water pressure in the shower was the worst i have ever seen
