Not so exceptional!
The room was good. bed was confortable. The restaurant is average trying to serve french food. What bothered me the most during the whole duration of my stay was this always strong smell of perfume everywhere, even in the room and at the restaurant !

Clean, well located. Polite staff.
Room was very clean. Cleaning staff and front desk staff were friendly and efficient. Check in was fast. Breakfast in hotel restaurant was good / efficient service (a Monday AM after 9am.) Restaurant seemed popular and busy- not a quiet place in the evening. Grocery, convenience store and coffee shops nearby. Major city attactions very near by.
