"It’s well situated and has a helpful, friendly staff. The room was huge and very comfortable. It’s an older building and is not a luxury property. The breakfast was good and I enjoyed my stay."

"Son emplacement est super, personnel super gentil. Pour y être allée en 2014, je trouvais qu'il manquait d'amour au niveau de la déco. Une petite mise à jour s'imposerait peut-être. Sinon très bien"
