The Hotel accommodations are in a multi-use facility. There is some construction elsewhere in and around the complex. The hotel floor of the complex had many interesting pieces of art in the hallways. At night, the area was quiet, there is public bus transport to Lyon nearby. The hotel staff were very friendly, the room / bedding were clean and the bed was comfortable. A good place to stay.

Je ne comprends pas cette hôtel. Nous arrivons dans un bidonville, sans sécurité avec des gens qui tourne autour de notre voiture car aucune place pour ce garer. Je n’ai jamais trouvé de clés et l’ascenseur ne fonctionne pas. Une fois arrivée au 4e étage la porte est fermé (il était 18h30) j’ai dû repartir et je n’ai pas pu loger dedans. Une honte
