Perdect location but cold rooms
Pros:

Perfect location and clean rooms

Cons:

Main issue was the heating system. The air conditioning was not providing sufficient heating. Although the front desk staff adjusted the settings, we still felt cold during all three nights of our stay. This significantly affected our comfort.

Additionally, the sofa bed was not prepared when we arrived at the hotel. Due to the absence of housekeeping staff in the afternoon, a front desk employee attempted to prepare it. Unfortunately, it was not set up properly, likely due to a lack of experience in handling this task.

Pros:

Emplacement au top . Chambre spacieuse et propre avec même des sels de bains relaxants. Personnel attentionné et très gentil. Petit dejeuner parfait. Nous avons eu droit à une alerte incendie lors du petit déjeuner, le personnel a été au top, même des couvertures de survie nous ont été distribuées. Expérience rigolote, surtout avec un encadrement si parfait. vraiment bien.
