Lovely hotel, great dinner, great location.
Pros:

Lovely historic building in a lovely historic town. Dinner was fantastic, breakfast was as good, and everybody was lovely.

Cons:

Room was a little small, but it's a historic hotel in a city so absolutely to be expected.

Très joli hôtel que je recommanderais malgré tout.
Pros:

Central, jolie bâtisse, confortable

Cons:

Grosse nuisance de 2 SDF qui ont discuté toute la nuit donc nécessité de garder les fenêtres fermées tout en ayant préférer les laisser à l’air nocturne, d’autant plus qu’il faisait chaud…

Séjour sympa mais des améliorations sont nécessaires
Pros:

Emplacement très agréable, accueil très cordial, possibilité de ranger son vélo en sécurité, chambre avec beaucoup d’espace et propre

Cons:

Le petit déjeuner est très peu garni avec aucune option sans gluten, il n’y avait plus d’œufs à 9h
La salle de bain mériterait un coup de neuf, la baignoire était très glissante

Hôtel bien situé mais rénovation à prévoir.
Pros:

Accueil agréable et emplacement très bien.
Literie en bon état.
Petit déjeuner très bien.
Hôtel pratique pour les clients à vélo.

Cons:

La chambre manque de confort. La salle de bains mériterait une petite rénovation.
Robinetterie ancienne, pas de mitigeur... pas très pratique dans la douche, lavabo fendu.
Va et vient bizarre entre 2 lampes de chevet, impossible d'avoir les 2 lampes de chevet allumées en même temps !!!

Overnight stay
Pros:

Proximity to old town.

Cons:

The carpet was a bit dated.
Staff were very nice but a lack of experience was evident.
The breakfast was tired and we arrived at 9am!!! For example 2 slices of cheese left and no knives.
Not a good start to the day.
