Hotel was good, location is great. Rooms need a bit of help with the plumbing. Bathroom sink didn’t drain well, needed to tell the front desk to fill the soap dispenser in the bathroom and to swap out towels all of which they did right away.

Was advertised as breakfast and dinner to be told due to covid 19 no dinner and breakfast only basic and cold!. Parking not available so additional cost local area run down and poor.

Response from Paula on Aug 1, 2020
Dear Hana, Thank you for taking the time to leave a feedback after your departure from our hotel. In fact, with the new covid safety and hygiene rules, we were unauthorized to serve anything other than cold options for breakfast. Furthermore, we are sorry that our restaurant being closed was unexpected. Kindly accept our apologies. Regarding parking, as you have so mentioned, the closest one belongs to the Lille Flandres train station and is located around 30 meters before the hotel. Being located on the business offices side of the city center, the area can in fact be less busy during the evenings. Again, we thank you for taking the time to leave a comment and hope to see you once again during a next stay in order to make up for the issues you encountered. Best regards,

Just ok
We were a family of 4 and the room was definitely a little tight once the sofa turned into a bed. The room was clean and the mini fridge items were a nice touch, but the beds were not very comfortable. The hotel is in a great location easily walkable to everything you would want to see in Lille. The breakfast was delicious and the staff were very friendly. Overall just ok mainly because of the beds and room size.

Also, we are pleased to read that our staff was welcoming but also that our breakfast buffet was up to your standards. That being said, I am sorry that the room size didn't match your expectations.

Great Location, but bedrooms need a bit of TLC
The hotel location was very good, as was the reception hall and breakfast area. The bedrooms were disappointing, needed a good lick of paint! The bathrooms however were okay. Overall the hotel is definitely more fitting of a decent 3 star, than a 4 star hotel.

Convenient location friendly desk staff
Desk person was extremely helpful. Business center was broken, so had to email to hotel if wanted anything printed-which is probably a non starter for many. We did not get breakfast there. Downstairs was really nice. Rooms alright. Fitness center fine, although dumbbell sets would help it. Initial deposit (beyond cost) very high, only exceeded by rental car deposit at train station.
