8.4/10 Very Good! (952 reviews)

It is at a prime location. However the toilet has a strong odor and the hair dryer is a joke because it constantly shuts off after overheating.

8.4/10 Very Good! (383 reviews)

The property is nice and the staff is nice as well. The hotel is directly across from a beautiful park and walkable to an unlimited number of restaurants in bistros and bars. The metro is 100 m away. Unfortunately, the air conditioning wasn’t working and we could not open our windows at night because a bistro directly below us left cigarette smoke billowing into our bedroom. They were kind enough to move us to another room.
