Categories

Cleanliness
6.5
Mixed reports: several guests praised clean rooms, but multiple strong complaints about dirty bedding, hair in bathrooms and even mould on ceilings indicate inconsistent housekeeping and occasional serious lapses.
Service
8.5
Generally positive reception and friendly staff frequently mentioned; some complaints about restaurant staff capability and occasional brusque behaviour at breakfast reduce a perfect score.
Location
9
Consistently praised: very convenient, short walk to historic centre/river, repeatedly described as 'great location' or 'proche centre'.
Room Quality
7.5
Rooms described as comfortable and clean by many, but issues noted with mattress softness, uncomfortable sofa bed and some dated or basic furnishings; variable room standards (suite upgrade vs basic).
Amenities
7.8
Good in-room basics (coffee, fridge) and free on-site parking mentioned by some, but recurring parking difficulties, limited international TV channels and lack of character for the property lower this score.
Value for Money
8.6
Multiple reviewers called the hotel budget-friendly and worth the price; overall perception of good value despite some shortcomings.
Food and Beverage
8
Breakfast frequently described as very good and varied, and some praised hotel restaurant meals; however there are isolated reports of average/poor restaurant food quality and service (table clearing issues).
Overall Experience
8.9
Overall impression is positive: convenient location, friendly staff and good breakfasts create a generally enjoyable stay, tempered by occasional cleanliness and parking issues.

Pros:

Le petit déjeuner est très bien
Les chambres sont calmes

Cons:

Pour notre deuxième nuit nous avons été surclassé en suite, nous étions super content mais en arrivant dans la chambre ! Nous commençons par découvrir un protège matelas salé avec traces de pipi et poils ! Sur la couette il y en avait aussi ! Et la salle de bain je n’ai même pas voulu utiliser la douche qui etait très sale ( pleins de poils partout et des traces bizarre ) ! Peut être faudra-t-il penser à vérifier derrière les femmes de ménage et non pas rester que derrière un bureau !

Great place to stay
Pros:

Everything! The room was excellent, very comfortable bed, good facilities and very clean. We couldn't fault the food at the hotel from the breakfast to our evening meals. We ate in the restaurant both nights, as the food and staff were great. The hotel is a short walk across the river into the city. Would recommend.

Cons:

Nothing
