The front desk staff was very friendly when we checked in and they were very helpful in booking a tour and a taxi back to the airport. Only things that needs to be fixed is the tiny noise of the air conditioner in room 317 and the shower door did not keep water from running onto bathroom floor. Other than that it was a cute hotel.

Hôtel was in a great location. Easy to travel via metro which stops one block away. Close to everything in nice. AC did not work in room, they were going to send a tech to check it out not sure if they did or not but the unit did not improve if so. Also on the last two days the elevator did not work, which was one of the reasons we selected this hotel.

The hotel is located in a fantastic location. Close to all major attractions. Air conditioning in the room did not work. We spent 2 days with the room temperature stuck around 27 degrees Celsius. Hotel room and hallways smell of mold and humidity.

No frills but clean and comfortable. Good location for the Promenade, old town and transport links. If you like a premier Inn then this would be right up your street
