Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
This restaurant boasts a restaurant and room service. They have neither. The do open a side area for a breakfast bar in the morning. However when I arrived in the evening after landing I was hungry and they had zero food options. They kept saying they could help me with that and didn’t. I was supposed to have a king bed. I had two twins each separately bedded pushed together. When I went down to point this out the put me off until the morning. I went outside to find a place to eat. The area of the Medina was dark and desolate with men hanging about outside doors. I had been warned multiple times not to wander in this area alone as a single female, yet this hotel representative told me to walk even farther and I would find some food. This was completely unsafe so I slept hungry. Their advertsement of their facility is an absolute lie and Expedia should investigate it. It is unsafe also because the staircase is dark, very dark so evacuating in case of a fire would be dangerous. It is a horrible, run down, unsafe property, with no restaurant, room service, they never serve alcohol despite claiming they do, and while it is near the Medina, you won’t want to be there at night.

Alright for sleeping, but not much else.
The hotel is in a great location. The hotel staff were friendly - the breakfast staff went above and beyond. The hotel itself is quite tired. The hot water was on and off. There is very little communal space. The roof was closed. The cafe at the front had limited opening times. There was not much security. The TV didn't work. There was nothing in the mini-bar.

Great location
This historic hotel, boasting a few centuries of respectable heritage, enjoys a prime location adjacent to the French gate, the heart of Tunis. While the room's small size slightly compromised comfort, its proximity to high traffic areas posed a challenge for my asthma (perhaps I should have kept the windows closed). A notable highlight was the courteous staff, who kindly provided us with umbrellas when raining.
