La chambre était spacieuse, propre et la literie bonne.
Le petit déjeuner laissait à désirer : les concombres n'étaient pas fraiches, pas plus que la salade de fruits.
L'écriteau menaçant de facturation le fait d'emporter de la nourriture me paraît une faute de goût, vu le peu de personnes prenant le petit déjeuner sur place et vu la parcimonie avec laquelle l'approvisionnement est effectué
Hôtel quasiment neuf et bien fait. Les chambres sont sympa et bien agencées. Le tram pour aller en ville est au pied de l’immeuble. C’est ce qu’il nous fallait. Parfait
Frukust mangel fuld. Minimalt udvalg og variationer

Personnel souriant et accueillant. L'hôtel se situe en face du tramway donc bruyant lors des passages. Chambre simple, petite mais fonctionnelle. Petit déjeuner simple.
Hôtel correcte avec parking fermée. Chambre spacieuse, grand lit confortable. Dommage que les chambres devant sont un peu bruillantes avec le tram et le ramassage poubelles. Restaurations a proximité.
Hotel bien. Horaires de la réception limités.
J’ai souhaité réserver un autre sejour, à la suite de celui-ci : le tarif avait augmenté de plus de 40% "c’est la loi de l’offre et la demande" m’a-t-on répondu ! Pas très correct.
Vi (2 voksne og 2 teenagere) havde 1 overnatning i hotellets familieværelse for andet år i træk og alt var super. Værelset var rent, rummeligt og med en fantasktisk altan med byudsigt. Hotellet ligger i gåafstand til centrum ca. 10 minutter og der ligger et fint supermarked lige nede af gaden. Morgenmaden var super fin til prisen og man kan tilkøbe parkering i parkeringshus i samme bygning. Eneste minus er at ingen kan snakke engelsk, men sådan er det desværre mange steder i Frankrig. Alt i alt en god oplevelse og hotellet kan anbefales.
