I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The rooms were perfectly cleaned every day and equipped with air conditioning and ceiling fans. They were just ideal, with tea/coffee making facilities, a TV, a modern bathroom with toiletries, and a very comfortable bed. The staff were very friendly and made our stay at the Arches exceptionally pleasant. While the rooms were not cleaned enough, everything else was great.
