    Breakfast was too expensive with limited variety of food. The bar staff was a very rude girl, left me waiting for almost half an hour and shouted at me because I put the teaspoon in the sink instead of on the bar. The smell in the common areas is that of dog/cat pee, not pleasant at all. The voltage of the electricity is VERY low. The mobile phone did not charge during the night, ended up without devices the following day. I contacted the reception but they barely spoke English so they did not understand me.

    The personal was not very helpful in particular when asking for a taxi. Apparently they have their our taxi arrangement and they are more expensive. (70€ to St. Charles station when we paid 50€ for the same distance for 6 people). And 50€ for 3 km without any machine to show you how much you were spending. The taxis are also not punctual. They arrived 10’ late.

    It‘s kids friendly. The pool was amazing.

    The surrounding area and the slightly suspicious f1 hotel opposite.

    Good and tasty breakfast. Friendly staff. Good and safe parking for the car. It is worth going here just to spend the night, otherwise the area is quite littery and uncomfortable. Big and loud streest etc. On the other hand, the place was easy to reach by car

    Despite great efforts of the staff, this hotel is not a 4 star accommodation. Everything inside/outside was outdated. No TV remote in the room. Hotel is situated between a highway and a busy road, car noise is constant. For one night only.

    Breakfast was decent (no eggs though), appreciated the precations due to pandemic, ham in plastic cups, pastry in paper bags, etc. Swimming pool was small but kids enjoyed it.

    The rooms were horrible , first the AC was not working and it never worked requested multiple times but still the staff did not help, then the room Keys stopped working after second day and never worked again . They made us wait for almost an hour standing outside of our door figuring out how to make the key work , then they gave us a new room where the flush was not working and eventually the keys again stopped working

    Just that it had a pool and not very far from the city . The breakfast was also good.

    Absolutely not clean... The plastic cover on the bed isn't confortable. The bath tub is unusable because the water drain could not be closed.

    Best position for my work travel. Grate parking very good lighted. The best breakfast! rich and abundant! Very good dinner. For sure one of the best chip hotel for having dinner!
