Le séjour était très agréable.
Pros:

Le buffet du déjeuner était très bon et varié. Excellente nourriture. J'ai apprécié le ventilateur dans la chambre avec la chaleur. L'emplacement était bien situé près d'un arrêt de bus.

Cons:

Un peu de bruit le soir dans les chambres voisines et depuis dehors.

It was a nice stay
Pros:

The location is quite good, close to the train station. Breakfast seemed very nice but I had no time to properly enjoy it. The staff was very friendly and helpful, check in and check out was smooth

Cons:

the bathroom could use a make over since some things were not working properly and you could see the wear and tear. The doors let a lot of noise through and some guests decided to talk veery loudly in the hallways after midnight.
