The Stay was Okay
The hotel stay was good enough to get a nights rest. This hotel is great for times when you are being budget friendly and it doesn’t matter where you stay at. There are some remodeling that needs to be done but other than it was ok

The hotel is what you would expect for the price. The guy at the Front desk was nice. However, housekeeping opened my door without knocking by while I wasn’t dressed. The room also had a foul moldy smell.

Bonjour, ils ont changé tout le mobilier ainsi que la TV, le frigo est de très bonne taille, à la place de la moquette, ils ont rénové avec du lino.les trois gros points noirs sont l'avenue 3 x 3 voies très très passante mais avec des boules quiès ça va devant le motel et à l'arrière la voie de chemin de fer dont on ressent les vibrations quand un train passe mais qui dure que quelques secondes et le dernier est que sans voiture tout est très loin des monuments touristiques. Cordialement

Sehr nah an einer Ausfallstraße und an den Bahnlinien, daher ist es im Zimmer sehr laut, auch nachts.

Typical Road Side Hotw
Not bad, but not great. Staff wouldn't look if we could check in early. Would only advise that check in was at three, it became apparent that half the hotel was empty so not sure why we couldn't. The did hold our bags for us but which was good.

Good location for the price.
Although a bit dated the room was clean and comfortable. The staff were polite and helpful. Continental breakfast available each day. Free parking. Mile walk to the metro and bus connections. Ok in nice weather otherwise $10.00 taxi trip.
