Very good location, safe surrounding, nice room.
Pros:

Very good location, close to old town also to public transport, possibilities to have breakfast or other meals outside - big selection. Two supermarkets around. Nice communication with staff. Fan was in the room, as there was not air conditioning.

Cons:

Room was nice and spacy, but no air conditioning - when weather is hot it is too difficult to sleep.

Für Budgetreisende empfehlenswert.
Pros:

Man bekommt wofür man bezahlt hat. Die Einrichtung ist simpel aber funktional für kurze Aufenthalte.

Cons:

Die Dusche war sehr klein und es gab keine Anhänger, um Handtücher aufzuhängen. Im Zimmer hatten wir nur zwei Steckdosen, bei der Hitze musste eine davon für den Ventilator freibleiben.

Vraiment bon rapport qualité prix
Pros:

Très bon emplacement et bon prix

Cons:

Il aurait juste fallut au moins 2 prises dans la chambre. Difficile de décider…mettre le ventilateur car il fait chaud ou charger son téléphone urgemment ? Mais dans l’ensemble c’est vraiment bien pour le prix
