Gute Lage, und normalerweise bestimmt auch ein schönes Hotel
Pros:

Die Lage des Hotels ist außergewöhnlich gut; man ist in Fußreichweite zum Zentrum und zu allen Sehenswürdigkeiten; Hotelparkplatz ist sehr praktisch

Cons:

Zum Zeitpunkt unseres Aufenthalts waren Umbauarbeiten im Gange – das Restaurant und der normalerweise übliche Frühstücksraum standen nicht zu Verfügung; die Ersatzräume waren in die Jahre gekommen und nicht sehr attraktiv

Déçue
Pros:

Le petit déjeuner est excellent.
Le lit est très confortable..
Ma chambre était prête à mon arrivée très tôt dès 11h. Je les remercie beaucoup pour cela.

Cons:

J'ai réservé en pensant pouvoir manger le soir au restaurant de l'hôtel. Une fois la réservation faite j'ai reçu un email me disant qu'il était fermé pour travaux. Ce serait bien de le préciser avant de booker non? Cela fait partie du choix des clients pour réserver un hôtel.
Du coup, on est accueilli au Harry qui se trouve dans l'hôtel mais une toute petite salle sombre sans fenêtre. Le lieu n'est pas très agréable. . Mais à 19h, les travaux de la salle du restaurant ne sont pas finis donc vous mangez au bruit de perceuse. Ce n'est pas agréable.. De plus, un des serveurs lance la machine pour nettoyer je ne sais quoi. Bref , pas du tout agréable.
L'hôtel est à 10 Min à pieds du centre. L'extérieur est aussi en travaux , il faut le préciser.
Je ne recommande pas cet hôtel vu le prix.

Room and hotel ticked most boxes for what we were looking for .Overall happy enough.
Pros:

Room was really nice and clean.All staff were helpful and friendly.Safe car park facilities.

Cons:

Surrounding area felt a little unsafe so made sure we returned to the hotel a bit earlier than we would normally after eating out.2 TVs in the room both being effected by the same remote very annoying.Bar was under renovation so makeshift bar facilities weren’t the most ideal.But that couldn’t really be helped to be fair.
