The hotel is simple, with old facilities, but good value for short stays. We found the bed comfortable, cleanliness okay, and liked the surroundings, with many dining options and a nearby supermarket. Breakfast could be more complete, but it was satisfactory.

There are only stairs in the hotel. The receptionist at check-in was not friendly. Wi-Fi signal was not good that day.

The room I stayed in, 107, was a bit stuffy.

The location is great, very close to important points, which makes the stay much easier. The service was also good! The accommodations themselves are comfortable and met the needs during the stay.

I didn't like the breakfast. The available juices were not natural or fresh and seemed to be powdered juice (Tang). In addition, the options were very limited, basically bread and couscous, which was a bit hard and dry. Another issue was the shower, the water flow was very weak, only a few drops came out. I had a lot of difficulty washing my hair because there was practically no water.

The location is very good, the surroundings are good too. And when entering the room, it is very clean and organized. Most of the staff are polite, only 2 are a bit short, but not rude, they should just provide more details.

Although I received the room very clean and organized. The bathroom had a certain time when it gave off a smell, I don't know if it was from the toilet or somewhere else, but the entire bathroom would get wet and start to smell like urine, leaving the whole room stinking, and I couldn't open the window because there is a roof next to it with a pigeon's nest. The Wi-Fi doesn't work properly, the TV also, the remote control was bad and half of it is stained without a good focus on the image. And the bathroom is missing a latch to lock the doors.
