Une semaine reposante et ressourçante ! Un avant goût d’été
Pros:

Le service et la disponibilité de tout le personnel, du petit déjeuner, piscine, accueil
La piscine chauffée avec vue magnifique sur la mer

Cons:

Un petit rafraîchissement des peintures et boiserie et mobilier permettrait de moderniser avantageusement l’hôtel qui a déjà une énorme potentiel

Pros:

Comme d'habitude la chambre parfaite, petit déjeuner rien à dire, tout a été parfait.
A l'arrivée dans la chambre mon chien à été accueilli comme un roi.

Cons:

Ce que je trouve un peu dommage c'est que le chien ne soit pas admis au bar, au restaurant et au petit déjeuner.
Nous connaissons tous nos animaux et sommes contient qu'ils pourraient déranger les autres voyageurs, dans ce cas nous le laisserions en chambre.
Chacun connais son chien et doit juger par lui même si oui ou non il va bien se comporter.
Faire signer une charte de bonne conduite de l'animal au propriétaires serait une idée. je pense qu'un essai dans ce sens serait peut-être envisageable.
Certains voyageurs au bar m'ont plus souvent dérangé qu'un chien aux pieds de ses maitres.
Cela dit merci de les accepter.
