Pros:

Der Preis ist ok. Haben das Hotel 2 mal innerhalb 1 Woche gebucht. Es ist nicht das neueste was Möbel und Hotelangeht,aber es ist wie gesagt ok. Beim ersten Mal hatte wir eine Dusche.....Klasse.......Beim zweiten Mal Badewanne. Frühstück kann hinzugebucht werden. Auch von der Lage ist es gut gelegen.

Cons:

Es gibt sicherlich dies und das zu bemängeln, aber nichts wo ich persönlich sagen würde ich komme nicht wieder. Waren jeweils auf der Durchreise.

Short stay 2 days
Pros:

Good location

Cons:

The first night was so bad in room 225 we had to change rooms as we had no sleep due to the extractor fan in the bathroom being so loud and running constantly with the light off that combined with the vibration from the plant on the roof i could have had a better night in my car. The second room had a constantly flushing toilet that you had to lift the lid every time it was used as a cord had been fix to the lid from the flush point so when you lifted the lid it would reset that was room 310.
I asked for a refund but the email response told me they only give refunds in the event of death or you are hospitalised . I have contacted the parent company in Paris as the customer service at the hotel is just lip service but nor real service.

So they take no responsibility for anything that should be sorted out by the hotel.
I WILL DEFINITELY NOT USE THAT HOTEL AGAIN.
