Very wonderful stay! I would stay again
Pros:

Walking distance from the station. Comfortable and clean rooms that were well furnished and inviting. Breakfast buffet was nice. Very friendly and helpful staff. They arranged a very late check-in.

Cons:

The springs in one of the beds was a bit old and not stiff enough.

Pros:

La localisation centrale et le garage à vélo.

Cons:

nous avions une chambre sur cour au rez-de-chaussée sans presque aucune lumière naturelle.
Pas de déco ni de charme particulier.
La machine à café fait également eau chaude ce qui fait que le thé a goût de café. C'est dommage.
