Clean room. Comfortable bed with sheet and duvet. Bed with just the duvet is too warm even with the windows open.

Hotel Campanile Dijon Centre - Gare
The staff were lovely and the bar manager also friendly. The property is in need of renovation and I suggest sound-proofing should be a priority as other guests allowed their children to race up and down the hallway until late which affected our sleep.
