The upper rooms are very good. The drawback is that the lift don't go to the top floor. Yip, that means you gotta carry your luggage up the small staircase to you room. The lift is also very small. The staff Is always willing to assist. They have a great taxi deal to the airport.

Very defective and noisy lift, and for the 4° floor you had to go upstairs by walking bringing your suitcase by yourself. Staff was very helpful but unkind, we had to... More
