Séjour trés apprécié et appréciable.
Pros:

Emplacement à l'ecard du centre ville trés touristique, ce qui est aussi un atout de tranquilité. Nous l'avons choisi pour son look non ultra moderne et standard. Choisi aussi pour y venir en navette directement depuis l'aéroport§

Not great for actual sleep with room being so hot, staff were lovely and location were great though.
Pros:

Staff were very nice, guy who checked us in was helpful with any questions. Location is great very close to everything in city.

Cons:

Room was small, ceiling was high so the curtains used were high but still let in street light from above, they should invest in a black out blinds and curtains. Room was incredibly warm so much I had a terrible night sleep the first night even with two fans running all night.
