Comodo se si hanno molti bagagli.
Pros:

Che in realtà era non una stanza , ma un grande appartamento . I letti erano morbidi e c’era una cucina.

Cons:

Molto brutta e obsoleta, il lavandino del bagno otturato.

I appreciate the vibe and location - too noisy on the 2nd floor
Pros:

i liked the style, vibe, decor, location, staff & check-in experience (earlier check in was made possible, I appreciated it)

Cons:

the light was not sufficient for writing, very loud noice from the pub until 11.30 pm on a Tue night. Soft matteress on the bed. Kitchen and bathroom could be updates and also there was no air conditioning. Blinds were not functioning properly.

Everything Was Awesome, But The Elevator
Pros:

We liked the location and the room was roomy and clean.

Cons:

The elevator was not working and we had to carry heavy luggage up a narrow staircase. We were not offered help at all. Not offered a gift certificate to their pub downstairs. Some customers were very elderly carrying up luggage, not good.

Pros:

Immense suite, propre, petite terrasse partagée, très bien situé, bon accueil.

Cons:

Le stationnement est très difficile. Il faut laisser la voiture dans un stationnement privé plus loin. La terrasse est très intéressante sauf quand une des chambres décide de l'utiliser jusqu'à 3 AM... Beaucoup de tapis, ce qui est bon pour le bruit mais moins pour les allergies.
