Not quite the usual Novotel standard.

Air con was not functional so room was too hot to sleep well, had to have the window open so was woken by the train station from about 5am onwards. Car park height limit is 1.9m but not stated. So had to park elsewhere. No bar/food available in evening even though it is stated that it is open on Accor's website.
