What was good and what was bad?

GOOD
- Very attentive and smiling staff
- Elegant décor of the newly renovated lobby
- Bicycles can be rented
- Very good breakfast at restaurant (large choice of quality products, terrace over the garden)
- Very pleasant indoor pool and spa.

BAD
- Club lounge still closed
- The internet disconnects when you are not using the network, so you have to re-connect each time.
- Connecting to wifi on iPad was impossible
- Many TV channels were inoperable (or unstable, especially French channels)
- Surprising absence of Arte as a TV channel, despite it is a Franco-German channel

Value for $ or IHG One Rewards Points? Would you return?
