The staff at reception were friendly, helpful and spoke fluent English; two lifts were available at all times and the car parking was secure. The room was comfortable, with a large bed, a good TV, a kitchenette with 2 hotplates, a microwave and a refrigerator and a bathroom with shower - all very satisfactory. The only thing that wasn't quite perfect was the air conditioning, which was noisy and not very effective: a pity, as the weather was hot and so were we! That aside, it was a pleasant and quiet place to stay with restaurants and an excellent boulangerie nearby and within reasonable walking distance of the city centre.
