Ok for a stop over, managed to find a lovely bar nearby, the atmosphere in the hotel bar was not for us. If you have mobility problems check your room is not in the area where there are flights of stairs & no lift.

No air conditioner, tv didn’t work so was unable to watch Olympics, rooms were hot and stuffy. Roof in the bathroom started leaking like a waterfall. Whole stay was just uncomfortable.

Disliked: Staff & service
We booked the wrong dates and tried to change. Hotels.com staff couldn’t change the booking as no one at the hotel spoke English. We tried via email and never got a response, so asked our French Airbnb hosts to call, hotel refused to do anything over the phone and said they would reply to our email. Never heard from them. Terrible customer service avoid like the plague

Confortable

Très bon séjour. Hôtel proche de la gare et des restos. Nous avons été très bien accueillis. Chambre confortable. Le petit bémol serait d’avoir un rideau ou une porte pour la douche même si elle est dans un renforcement, car étant avec des enfants ou des amis cela pourrait être gênant. Je recommande cet hôtel.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
L’accueil se fait par l’entrée d’un restaurant qui me semble faire parti de l’hôtel. Je n’ai pas eu de chauffage de toute la nuit, ainsi que de l’eau chaude qui a mis au moins 5 minutes à arriver. Le personnel désagréable quand on leur soumet notre problématique. J’ai fait l’erreur de ne pas regarder les avis sur Google qui sont catastrophiques. Je pense qu’il serait bien d’enlever de votre liste cet hôtel qui se permet en plus d’afficher deux étoiles. J’avais réservé pour deux nuits et je n’ai pas honoré ma deuxième nuit, j’ai préféré rentrer de nuit chez moi. C’est inadmissible que ce type d’établissement soit proposer par vos services surtout quand on parle de déplacements professionnels.
