Summary of reviews

Guests say
Guests appreciated the hotel's excellent location near St. Joseph Cathedral and the old quarter, making it convenient for exploring local attractions and dining. Many found the rooms clean, spacious, and comfortable, with some noting good bathroom facilities and heating. However, the lack of an elevator and limited staff assistance, especially for guests with heavy luggage or elderly visitors, was a common negative point. Service issues such as unexpected charges and unhelpful staff were also mentioned. Overall, the hotel offers good value for its location and room quality but may not be suitable for those needing accessibility support.
