It is close to the train station and perfect for early morning train travel. Staff were very helpful. It was just what we needed for one night stay and early morning train. Thank you!

Location was great for train station. For elevator have to climb one flight of steps, then only 1 person with or without one suitcase could use at a time.
Staff were wonderful!!!

Front desk were competent, rooms were reasonable priced being so close to the train station. Our room was clean but cramped. Air conditioner worked very well. There was some noise even when the window was closed. Very small elevator and had to walk up one flight of stairs to catch it.

Next to train station
Overall ok, however had bed bugs bites. The bathroom lacks basic toiletries, only soap is provided.
Location is good, short 15 minutes walk to the old port area. service is responsive.
The room was accommodating. I liked how close it was to the train station and it is a very easy 10 min walk to the port. downside to the room was that the bathroom smelled like smoke from the outside, almost like the window wasn't closed, but I could not adjust it. It is a bit loud, but with a white noise app I slept well.
The staff was excellent and went out of their way to help us get information about the city.
Staff were very friendly and helpful providing a map of where to go to eat and spoke both French and English. Room and bathroom had been recently refurbished. My only gripe was that I could not get the shower to run warm and the kettle didn't work. Managed t5o open window so I was able to stand on narrow balcony,

Great Front Dest, Lacked Door Bolt
The front desk people were wonderful. Very helpful. The room was clean, but lacked amenities. No washcloths. No shampoo.
NO INSIDE DOOR BOLT!!! Unsafe!
And I never was able to get online.
You let us down Expedia. Way too much money for this horrible place. We felt unsafe, it was old and very dirty and did not resemble the advertised write up.
I was quick off the train. This hotel very convenient and filled my immediate need perfectly. It’s the central train station area so nighttime has characters roaming about the neighborhood. The hotel is very established and secure. I would stay again based on its local convenience to everything.
Nice hotel for a one or two night stay. Staff is super friendly. Room is clean but small. Close to the train/bus station and to old port. Weird smell in the hall
Staff and property were great! A/C worked really well while I stayed during summer. No iron and safe did not work in the room but was not that important/affected my stay in any way.

Great staff, convenient for station,problem drains
Very convenient location and very friendly and helpful staff. Breakfast was basic. Air conditioning in room very effective. Issue was an odd smell of chemicals in room on arrival which developed into an unpleasant drains smell overnight.
