Hotel was great value for money. Parking was 2 blocks away and one of the cheapest we could find for 8€ for 12 hours. Outside of that the room is bare bones, if you are a light sleeper or want something above a motel room, this is not for you.

Very good location, 20 minutes to old lyon by feet. Furniture is a bit outdated but still a good choice for the price and location! Even parking in an garage available if you reserve it beforehand for 8 Euros, was the cheapest I found in the city. My Volvo V60 fit, SUVs should too.

My stay: 12th - 15th March 2020

The hotel itself was clean and tidy, the staff were professional and the room was comfortable but the bed mattress was very compressing and hurt my back really badly. The blue neon lit sign: HOTEL was right outside my window and kept me awake at night even with the curtains closed. Also, the lift malfunctioned quite often and wouldn’t stop at my floor when I called it and sometimes the doors would not open when it reached the ground floor or my floor (2nd floor).

Comfortable, retro hotel

It's a comfortable hotel. I only spent couple of days there and it was clean with a good internet, but also very retro furnitures. A bit like time travelling to the '70s

This hotel is old and dated. Amenities were SEVERELY lacking and room heaters did not work. No one answered the phone at the front desk when we tried to call down multiple times. Staff left sheets/towels/etc on floors outside rooms when going for lunch breaks which did not look good at all. Overall, this hotel is a poor choice and I would not stay here again.
