Best rooms
Request a room on a higher floor (2nd or 3rd) to minimize potential street noise from Quartier Commerce. As the hotel has a single lift serving all floors, you're less likely to experience delays or long waits, making it easier to navigate with luggage.
Request a room on floors 2 or 3, at the back of the building (away from the street). These floors are high enough to reduce ground-level noise but low enough to use stairs quickly if the single lift is busy.
Rooms to avoid
Ground floor rooms may be noisier due to potential foot traffic and the location near the main entrance. Additionally, be aware that the accessible room on the ground floor has a roll-in shower, but standard rooms do not have wheelchair-accessible bathrooms.
Avoid rooms on the ground floor (floor 0) — noise from the entrance, bar, and kitchen carry here. Also avoid rooms facing the front directly onto the main road, where passing traffic and street activity are loudest.
