Reviews
Check in was fairly slow and a bit muddled considering we had checked in online as they requested and we still had a form to fill in.
There are 2 lifts in the property and we were not told this at the time and went to the wrong room. An housekeeper showed us the way.
The room was OK bathroom small. We had opted for a superior room. We noticed it had a connecting door and the first night we were woken at 1.30am with the people next door talking loudly etc. We could hear everything. This went on for 30 minutes until we banged on the door.
The next door we advised front desk we were not happy with the room and they did not seem surprised and advised we would be moved.
2nd room was the same size and style but quieter.
We had a free welcome drink in the bar and went to the jazz restaurant. Food was OK.
Breakfast is also adequate with made to order omelets.
Location is good for walking clise to cemetery and grande florialist. Would we stay here again no.
