I think it is a good solid place to stay for the price and location.
Pros:

The breakfast buffet was very good. The staff was super friendly and helpful. The location was great. The room, although a bit tight for 3 adults, had a lot of storage space built in.

Cons:

There was a strange smell in the bathroom, almost like it was coming from the sewer, which is off putting, but thankfully the smell was only noticeable in the bathroom and did not emanate into the room.

C'est toujours un plaisir d'y retourner année après année. Un personnel charmant, une position plus que centrale dans la ville, une chambre simple et fonctionnelle, et une literie de concours ! Que demander de plus.
