  The Colombe 1
by SirRichard
 
 

This is one of the most popular medium range hotels here. Most groups come here and it's got a good reputation. Nevertheless, I didn't sleep here, and my only experience was at the restaurant. I tied to have lunch here once. Came in, it was empty, so I ordered a salade and a couscous. plus a water bottle. The waiter brought me the bottle of water and I kept waiting for the salade about 40-50 minuts. After that, I tried to look for a waiter to complain, but there was no sign of anyone in the restaurant. Fed up of this situation I went downstairs, paid my bottle of water in reception and moved to another restaurant, where I had a normal lunch.

Unique Qualities: There are 2 buildings, not far from one another, Colombe 1 and Colombe 2.
