Bel hôtel très bien entretenu. Séjour très agréable. Grand salon avec 2 chambres appréciable en famille. Machines à laver et sèche linge dans parties communes à disposition très appréciable. Seul bémol les horaires d’ouverture de la réception ne permettant pas d’être accueilli quelle que soit votre heure arrivée (ex : nous sommes arrivés entre 13 et 14h, et c’était fermé). Personne de l’accueil très serviable.

The owner gave me some local milk for my tea, but unfortunately, I was ill and couldn't ingest anything. The hot tub looked like it had powerful jets, but again, I couldn't try it. (I'm better now).

Staff were helpful. A good sized room but next to laundry. We believe there are possibly people staying there long term. Had to speak to a group of people because there were making loud noise at 6:30 in the morning. OPatio area was little more than a smoking area. A fair walk from town and right next to a rather ugly looking industrial building.
