Chambre très très petite, chaleur épouvantable. Pour la climatisation, on devait placer un tuyau dans la fenêtre et l’attacher afin qu’il ne tombe pas. Hôtel situé dans un endroit très passant et bruyant. Nous avons changé d’hôtel après une nuit. Les photos ne représentent pas le lieu.

We loved our stay. Our room was one of the 5th floor apartment style rooms which was unique and let us spread out a bit. The kitchenette was welcome. The staff was very friendly and accommodating. We enjoyed the decor. Safe convenient area. Easy walk to the main train station and a large Coop.
