Old and tired, poorly decorated hotel, not many art deco features! Grumpy staff that were not very friendly to our dog! It was clean enough but the towels need to be renewed soon, the AC worked very well and the location was close enough to the livelier part of the town, parking outside was convenient! We wouldn’t stay again!

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
Comfortable, spacious and quiet room. The hotel is on a side street off of a very attractive plaza called Place Victor Hugo. This is an older building and it shows to some degree, but was very clean and the breakfast room was particularly nicely decorated. Staff was accommodating and helpful. The parking garage under the plaza is very new and has extra-wide parking spaces. The area is very walkable and picturesque, with pleasure boats lining the canals. If you're a fan of the TV series Candice Renoir, you'll find the building that was used as the set for the police station only a couple of blocks away.

Dishonest manager!

After traveling for 48 hrs with no sleep, we reserved for the wrong night, immediately realized our mistake, and within 5 minutes arrived at the hotel and explained our situation. one of gentlemen at this hotel was kind and even helped us book a room elsewhere and encouraged us to request a refund from Hotels.com, which we did. When they called the hotel, they got another person who was present when we arrived who thought he could hold us to the not needed reservation and double book the room. As an executive in the travel industry, we would never in a million years recommend this place. We took the room so it couldn’t be booked and it was shabby with no furniture and a predatory manager to boot.

Man fühlt sich sehr willkommen. Das Personal ist sehr aufmerksam und zuvorkommend. Die Zimmer sind zweckmäßig, aber für mich viel wichtiger, sehr sauber. Der Service ist gut. Die Lage ist optimal. Einzige Einschränkung für mich als Motorradfahrer ist, dass es keine Garage gibt.
