Convenient Stay with Balcony VIEWS

great locationeasy explorationfine view
I appreciated the excellent location right on the Vieux Port, made exploring very convenient. Both walking and using the metro and bus were easy. The view from my balcony was fine. I found it convenient for both walking and public transportation including metro, bus and sightseeing buses.
The provided paper cups were a bit of a letdown, proper glassware would have been preferable.

The comfort double room WAS clean and quiet. The bed ensured restful sleep. Most tourist attractions and restaurants are easily accessible on foot, I must say.

The hotel's location is central, with access to transportation. The metro and bus are right outside the hotel. The view from the balcony overlooks the ships, with a picturesque scene .

Acceptable location, but issues with service and room amenities

excellent locationpaper cupsautomatic control
The location was indeed excellent. It was just opposite the promenade with numerous restaurants nearby.
I found the room rather basic. It had only two tiny single-use paper cups. There was no tea or coffee available in the room. the air conditioning and heater was automatically controlled, so I returned to a very cold room in the evening after the outside warmth, and I was unable to adjust it (a significant oversight).

The hotel location is really convenient. It is a short walk to the Port and the metro station. Many dining options are nearby.
The room was small and it overlooked the main street. It could get noisy at night if the window was open. There were only two paper cups and no kettle.
