The location is excellent, conveniently close to stores and restaurants, and parking was hassle-free. The reception staff were friendly, helpful, and made both check-in and check-out quick and easy. The room was comfortable and provided a good rest after a long day of travel. However, the hotel could benefit from some maintenance, and the breakfast offering could be improved in both variety and quality."

A/C is extra here, and the rooms are small but clean. The location is top-notch for dining and sight-seeing. The breakfast (extra charge, as is universal in France, but in this case a very small one) is wonderful, with many local products. Above all, the staff are lovely and extremely accommodating, including for example fixing an air conditioner and supplying a power adapter. Highly recommended."
