“This property stands out for its architecture, housed within restored 19th-century townhouses. Its location close to the Madou Metro Station also makes it a practical base, from which it's easy to dive into the city. I think this accommodation could particularly suit travelers who value convenience and historic charm.”

Acceptable Stay at this Hotel

good locationtourist attractionsdecent selectionbreakfast itemsfriendly staffpoor soundproofingstained carpetmissing air conditioning
The location was really good. I found it easy to walk to many tourist attractions. The breakfast was fine and offered a decent selection of items. The staff were friendly and helpful, which i appreciated (they helped me with directions). The room had comfortable beds. I got a good night's sleep.
The soundproofing of the rooms was not great. I could clearly hear conversations in adjacent rooms. The carpet had some stains, a little off-putting. There was no air conditioning in my room, and , made it less comfortable during the warmer days.

The breakfast had many options. Staff members at the front desk, in the kitchen, and housekeeping were excellent. The free WiFi allowed me to work without using my data.
