Enjoyed our stay just disappointed with lack of maintenance and attention to detail in rooms.
Pros:

Central location, spacious room and lovely decor.
Hotel staff very friendly and helpful.

Cons:

Upon entering our room there was a musty wet smell. My husband sat on the armchair and fell off as front right leg was broken. Wall light at desk was loose when I went to use it. Sofa bed lounge wasn’t packed away properly so couch uncomfortable to sit on until we opened and packed away again.

Hôtel très bien situé dans une ville très agréable.
Pros:

L’emplacement était parfait. La vue de la chambre exceptionnelle.

Cons:

Le petit-déjeuner était très moyen. La terrasse de la chambre était minuscule et une odeur de graillons montait des restaurants situés en dessous. La chambre sentait le moisi. Dans la salle-de-bain, très mauvais éclairage au niveau du miroir, impossible de s’y maquiller. Pas assez de petites serviettes et de bonnets de douche, seulement 1 pour 2 personnes.

Perfect location and facilities
Pros:

The hotel was lovely, we were given an upgrade which was an unexpected bonus. The location was perfect - we could easily walk everywhere we wanted to go. The staff were great - we had a problem with our airconditioner on the public holiday. The girl at reception looked at it immediately, she was very helpful and maintenance staff were on hand and fixed it.
