Tres bien placé, mais prix surfait pour la qualité
Pros:

Extrêmement bien placé en plein centre, pour visiter la ville à pied ou en transports publics.
Les chambres qui donnent sur cour sont très tranquilles.
Le personnel à été très réactif pour répondre aux questions par message (préparation avant le voyage).

Cons:

L'hôtel pourrait être magnifique s'il était mieux entretenu et soigné. Plein de détails déçoivent et ne justifient pas le prix : peinture qui s'écaille au plafond de la chambre, traces de glu/peinture qui dégoulinent dans les escaliers, ascenseur en panne, odeur d'urine dans les WC (probablement problème de canalisation), maçonnerie faire n'importe comment, ... Le petit-déjeuner est décevant : peu varié, produits basiques, fruits tapés ou pourris, "fromage en plastique"...

Pros:

This was a fabulously located hotel , no frills, small rooms, just the basics one needs for a city break when one is going to be out and about, but the critical elements were there, high level of cleanliness, good beds , sensible easily managed showers, and outstandingly helpful staff on duty 24/7. I have highly recommended this venue to friends.
I visited in late May, I would think heat could be an issue for mid summer /heatwave conditions because there is no aircon, but windows can be opened and there were large fans in the rooms, so I cannot judge this aspect.

Cons:

Nothing

Posizione ottima e personale molto gentile
Pros:

Personale disponibile, gentile e accogliente. Ci hanno offerto la possibilità di un posto in un parcheggio a pagamento distante 5 minuti abbondanti a piedi a un prezzo scontato. Posizione molto centrale. Colazione abbastanza varia, dolce e salata.

Cons:

Hotel da ristrutturare. Le camere sono piccole, con moquette, bagno con accessori doccia rotti e molto piccolo, estremamente caldo e privo di aria condizionata, purtroppo abbiamo dormito malissimo nonostante gentilmente ci abbiano fatto cambiare stanza (la prima sarebbe stata ancora peggio). I ventilatori e le pale nelle camere non sono sufficienti.

Pros:

Le personnel est tres gentil

Cons:

l'établissement n'est PAS CLIMATISE, ce que j'aurais aimé savoir à l'avance en pleine canicule, j'aurais annulé ma reservation. Ma chambre était un four, et une fois les fenetres ouvertes , ce fut le bruit de la rue le soucis (travaux, passage, tram..)
