Charming Stay with Excellent Amenities

efficient air conditioning comfortable bed modern decor light duvet

The room was very quiet because of secondary glazing, and the air conditioning worked efficiently. The decor was fun, modern, and clean (the Jules Vernes theme was tasteful). The bed was super-comfortable, with a light duvet and really good pillows. I found a nice shower gel and shampoo provided in the bathroom.

The reception area seemed a little small, but there was an attractive bar and lounge right next to it.
