Convenient and well located

9.0

Very well located and good value. Room, bathroom and beds very clean. Staff very helpful and polite.

− Very simple and older building, so lots of stairs on a rather narrow staircase. Shower pressure could be better.

Bon emplacement, facile d’accès.

8.0

L’emplacement est super. Le personnel est gentil. Il y a quelqu’un 24h/24 pour nous accueillir ce qui facilite les arrivées et les départs. L’immeuble est vieillissant mais bien entretenu malgré tout.

− J’aurais aimé avoir du chauffage dans la salle de bain, avoir accès à un sèche-cheveux, à une deuxième serviette de toilette et avoir accès à un micro-ondes.

Guest review

9.0

Hôtel typique, équipements simples mais bien entretenus. Le personnel est très aimable, la situation parfaite, proche des gares, restaurants, pubs et métros

− Matelas trop mou.

Ann · CH · 2026-10-22

Beaucoup de points positifs mais le tarif est un peu élevé vu le du côté vieillot de l’hôtel.

8.0

L’emplacement, le confort de la literie, l’eau bien chaude, le café/thé/lait à volonté et à toute heure, la possibilité de manger dans la pièce commune.

− Très peu de place pour poser les affaires de toilette, les bagages et leur contenu. Vieillot mais cela ne gêne pas vraiment puisque le service est assuré
