Verified guest reviews via booking partner
Mon séjour dans cet hôtel a été décevant. Le personnel n’était vraiment pas agréable et l’accueil était très décevant, avec un manque de professionnalisme et de sens du service client. Le prix est élevé par rapport à la qualité des prestations proposées. Pour ce tarif, je m’attendais à un meilleur accueil et à un service bien plus satisfaisant. Malheureusement, je n’ai pas apprécié mon séjour et je ne recommande pas cet hôtel au vu de mon expérience.
