I was appalled at the treatment of the front staff. Those that appeared to be upper management were extremely rude. There was a young girl by the name of Sophia and a night receptionist (male) that were kind and went over and above! The ladies working in the cafeteria and the maids were extremely kind too. In fact, I would go to them for assistance in order to avoid the front desk.

We really liked our one night here. The location is close enough to easily walk to the city center but far enough away for it to be quiet when the city is bustling at night. We had a room with a terrace view of the city and enjoyed the couple hours we were able to sit out there. It's also conveniently located near the train station, only about five minutes by taxi to get there.

This is a functional hotel. Bed was comfortable and my view was amazing. It is walking distance to the city center and on a bus line if the incline (hill) is too much. Basic: old school with physical keys and light from the hall shone around the door at night. But, I was lucky and the hall was quiet. The breakfast was good. No complaints-

Great location, walkable from the train station. Staff were very friendly and accommodating. First night we got a room by the elevator, and it was very loud. Asked the desk to be moved and they happily moved my wife and I to a very quiet room. I would recommend this hotel. Great location, very clean, and excellent staff.

The area was great for exploring Seina. The room was a little smaller than expected but we only used the room for sleeping. The staff was very helpful and the breakfast was good. Would stay there again.
