Pros:

Bel hôtel vu de l'extérieur, qui s'intègre parfaitement à l'environnement. Quartier à la fois calme et proche du centre ville. Possibilité de se garer facilement dans le parking.

Cons:

A l'intérieur, en revanche, tout est défraîchi. La chambre est très étroite avec un placard qui n'est pas du tout fonctionnel. La salle de bain n'a jamais été rénovée. Un peu décevant pour un "trois étoiles".

Pros:

Hôtel vieillissant dans une très belle bâtisse. Pas loin du centre ville. Local à vélo sécurisé mais pas de prise électrique et il est interdit de charger les batteries dans les chambres. Pour les vélos électriques cela pose problème.

Cons:

Petit déjeuner succinct. Des œufs durs mais pas d'œufs brouillés, saucisses, bacon, rien de chaud.
Pas de bouilloire dans la chambre pour se faire une tisane , un thé...

Je vais beaucoup hésiter à utiliser Booking.com dans l'avenir
Pros:

Le petit déjeuner et les services, l'amabilité du personnel.

Cons:

La chambre avec des rideaux encombrants qui ont limité l'espace déjà petit. La faute vient de Booking qui nous a imposé une chambre à deux lits sauf paiement d'un supplément. On nous a fait une fausse remise.
