Loved my stay here, amazing location and great room with very comfortable bed. Hotel reception staff were so friendly and helpful. I was traveling alone and the location of the hotel is excellent as it’s so close to shops, restaurants and bars. Would definitely stay again! Merci!

Great location, nice and clean rooms, great shower service after the marathon. However the breakfast is not good value with too limited choices for 14€.
