"Good breakfast and location. BE AWARE they don’t change the sheets, check them well before sleeping !!"

7.0

The breakfast ladies were very kind. Breakfast is eggs, ham, cheese, fruit, milk, juice, bread and coffee. Not bad for the price that included it. The location is very good .

When I first arrived, it was OBVIOUS the cleaning lady hadn’t changed the sheets. We arrived late so just slept but next morning I found several hairs (even one pubic!). I then removed all the sheets and that day I saw new sheets. It’s like unless you remove them, they’ll keep them. I also found hairs in the washroom. I know it’s a cheap place but I’ve stayed in other cheap places and I have found them clean, this one, wasn’t . Disgusting laziness ruined the rest of the experience. Also the man who receives guests at night is not courteous . I get he’s not the receptionist but still. The shower is crazy! Too hot then too cold . It took me forever to shower everytime due to water temperature changing with the smallest change

"Séjour exceptionnel au cœur de Gelsemani"

10.0

Le personnel adorable, la beauté du lieu, le petit déjeuner frais et fait maison, la situation dans le plus beau quartier de la ville (pour moi)... Parfait.

L'eau chaude de la douche qui coule au compte goutte (et parfois ne chauffe pas du tout. Mais c'est un détail !
