Reviews based on Breakfast
Booked the hotel for 2 nights. Generally like accor hotels for the standards they maintain. This hotel was good as well. The rooms I felt were a bit outdated, however the television etc were top notch with casting available onto the screen. Good initiative to have this in the room. Otherwise overall breakfast was good, lot of options to choose from. If you stay here, you need to have a car. Did not come across any bus station nearby.
Normal hotel, very good service that compensate some lows of the hotel - rooms don't have a carpet and they are quite clean, but renovation seems to be only partially finished, bathrooms are very old. Breakfast is ok and price is fair.
