Décevant !
Pros:

Emplacement, pour une nuit de passage.

Cons:

On n’y retrouve absolument pas les 3 étoiles. Abords mal entretenus, équipements sanitaires d’une autre époque (bonde lavabo absente et abattant wc usé…)
Équipements chambre très basiques à l’exception de la literie, aucune décoration.
Salle de restauration qui manque d’entretien. De grandes jardinières intérieures sans plantes, avec terre sèche ! Ménage approximatif . Salle bruyante avec chaises métallique sur sol carrelé !
Service de petit déjeuner ( en buffet) façon cantine scolaire.

Juste une nuit sur notre trajet, c'était exactement ce qui répondait à nos besoins.
Pros:

L'accueil était très chaleureux, la chambre spacieuse avec plateau de convivialité . La proximité du restaurant, lui aussi très bien, a été appréciable.
Le petit déjeuner est copieux et très varié. Et surtout nous avons été accueillis avec le sourire. Vraiment très agréable.
