Very nice decor in the hotel and staff was very friendly and professional. Conveniently located close to Bellcour plaza with lots of restaurants close by. Area right next to the hotel was not as well lit as the rest of town so it was a little iffy, but overall no negative interactions.

Liked the property generally. The staff was very nice, made good recommendations. The air conditioning was not working well, which made it uncomfortable in the room. Also, there were a minimum of electrical outlets, which made it somewhat difficult to keep things charged. Finally, The shower design was poor.

Faded rose. The property shows wear on every surface. We had the largest suite whixh was huge. The bedding and linens were excellent. Every surface was scratched.nthe carpets were worn and the bathroom(s) tiles were outmoded and cracked. The tvs were small with no connectivity. The spa was underwhelming with a decent steam room and a walking shower that was not impressive. Gym was decent. Did not try the restaurant but no way does this currently deserve the 5 starsnit got decades ago. Staff was quite nice and helpful.
