Best rooms
Request a room on the 1st or 2nd floor at the back of the building, away from the street. These floors are quieter if the hotel has no lift, and the rear orientation reduces traffic noise from the main road.
Ask for a room on the 3rd or 4th floor facing the rear courtyard (away from Boulevard 1er Novembre). These floors are high enough to rise above most street noise but still accessible via the lift if it's working.
Rooms to avoid
Avoid ground-floor rooms facing the street. Street noise from Setif’s traffic will be loudest here, and there’s less privacy if the entrance or shop fronts are nearby.
Avoid any room on the 1st floor or those directly over the main entrance — the street traffic and late-night footfall from the boulevard carry straight up. Also skip rooms adjacent to the lift shaft on any floor; the mechanism is audible.
Wi-Fi
Free throughout the hotel, one device per room. Speed typically 15 Mbps down, 5 Mbps up, occasional dropouts in rooms at the rear. Login provided on a slip at check-in, no time limit
