“After careful consideration, I would advise travelers to be aware of serious concerns regarding hygiene and safety at Hotel Lyonnais. Reports indicate potential issues with pests and a concerning lack of appropriate response to reports of guest mistreatment. These factors lead me to suggest exploring alternative accommodation options in Nice.”
