Nice hotel and nice staff, they put plexiglass walls at the breakfast and they’re taking some precautions for the Covid-19. The room was clean but needs some improvements.

Très bien

Une nuit pour un week-end à Genève, hôtel super bien placé. Chambre petite, mais très propre et fonctionnelle. Un bémol pour le manque de climatisation en plein été, heureusement un bon petit ventilateur à disposition. Le personnel du soir et du matin était charmant. Avec les prix en baisses à cause de cette période Covid, super rapport qualité / prix! Je recommande cet hôtel.

Room was very comfortable and very clean. With no room temperature controls though the room temperature fluctuated during the evening - had to open the window.
