Mehr als schlecht.
Pros:

Einzig die Lage.

Cons:

Ich habe ein 4 Sterne Haus gebucht. Das Zimmer und der ganze Flur waren einfach nur herunter gekommen und komplett abgewohnt. Dreckiger, fleckiger Teppich im ganzen Zimmer, in der Minibar stand noch Salat vom Vorgänger, überall roch es nach Rauch obwohl alles Nichtraucher Zimmer waren. Keines der Bilder bei Booking zeigt auch nur annähernd den Zustand des Zimmers. Die Dusche war die größte Katastrophe. Der Wasserdruck reichte nicht mal dazu aus sich die Seife aus den Haaren zu waschen

Superb!
Pros:

Great location, free parking. Walking distance to both the beach and the town centre. Lots of shops, cafes and restaurants around. The room was spacious, and the beds were very comfortable. Everything was squeaky clean.
We opted to have breakfast at the hotel as well, it was DELICIOUS! Great variety (both hot and cold options).

Cons:

Aircon didn't work, but we could open the window for fresh air, so we were fine.

Pros:

Really close to the ferry, and to loads of bars and restaurants around the Place des Armes

Cons:

It is 'tired'. Good quality refit 25 - 30 years ago needs to be brought up to date soon.

Huono kokemus.
Pros:

Sijainti erinomainen (mutta joillekin varmasti liikaa meteliä).

Cons:

Molemmissa perhehuoneen sängyissä oli vain isot kahden hengen peitot - ja normaaleja yhden hengen peittoja ei ollut saatavissa; ei esimerkiksi isän ja pojan kuulu nukkua saman peiton alla. Ilmastointi ei toiminut kunnolla, oli liian kuuma. Minkäänlaista näköalaa ei ollut - ikkunan edessä betoniseinä, tosin kasvien peittämä. Piti olla neljän hengen huone, mutta esim. laseja oli kahdelle.
