I tried to contact you but it was nearly impossible to use that little box. It kept erasing my message when The tried to correct any errors. I finally sent the message with errors but your Ai is bad. It didn’t regard the contend but noted the errors. AI is really problematic for booking properties!!! ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2025 ### 4/10 Poor #### Alice 21 Sept 2023 Disliked: Staff & service #### Dont stay here Front desk gentleman extremely rude. Not helpful with parking and accused us of letting csts into the garage behind us. When checking out after 3 days the older lady in reception had trouble with running our credit card snd suggested we mydt be over our credit limit? When she tried the other machine it went thru immediately. We were asked to use the same towels for three days when i asked for an extra towel it was really big deal. This is a one star hotel. ##### Alice Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Antonio 18 Oct 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Ce fut un séjour paisible.

J'ai eu la chance d'être surclassée dans une chambre supérieure avec petit salon et canapé-lit supplémentaire (chambre 116) suite au gros désagrément d'être tombée initialement dans une chambre où l'odeur de fumée était intenable (chambre 304). L'hôtel était complet à l'exception de cette suite, je n'en demandais pas tant mais la surprise fut très agréable. L'emplacement est très bien et il est facile de se garer devant l'hôtel. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/0C95C81BF82A0F9EEB964CAC28CB41DA77D95EED1699449828595.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/E6B740A4516BB0637BC3F258ACBEE68C20D660A81699449834453.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/E5212D79CB5FB8404D2BEC4F0673FFBA3C7C53BB1699449839638.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Karine Stayed 1 night in Nov 2023 ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller 9 Oct 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Déçu par le repas le soir, champagne à température ambiante.
