Reviews
« Le logement de Caroline était incroyable pour un grand groupe. La très grande table de cuisine convenait confortablement à tout le monde. Pour un grand groupe, vous ne trouverez pas de meilleur Airbnb. Très proche de la gare et du centre-ville. »
« Super séjour à la Résidence Générale. Hyper confortable, et l’endroit est vraiment agréable, avec une décoration inspirante. J’y suis venu pour travailler : le coworking est inclus, j’ai loué une salle de réunion et j’ai pu faire mes formations sur place. Au top pour dormir, bosser, et même sortir juste à côté. »
« Nous avons passé un super séjour ! Très propre, lumineux et spacieux, et l’emplacement était pratique. La climatisation fonctionnait très bien. Les hôtes ont été très réactifs et faciles à contacter. Nous reviendrions certainement. »
