Super, wir kommen gerne wieder.
Pros:

Die tolle Lage, wir hatten den Blick auf die Bucht auf den Eingangsbereich. Das Zimmer war komfortabel. Frühstück war reichhaltig und lecker.

Cons:

Unser Zimmer war in der vierten Etage. Toll für den Blick, aber nur über eine steile Stiege zu erreichen. Da wir aber nur einen Rucksack als Gepäck hatten war das ok.

un albergo pieno di storia in una località di enorme fascino
Pros:

posizione vista della camera, la colazione l’organizzazione generale

Cons:

La chiave non ha funzionato dopo aver fatto quattro piani a piedi; il direttore di sala del ristorante associato,dall’aria molto sussiegosa, ci ha rifiutato nonostante abbiamo poi verificato che vi erano alcuni tavoli liberi all’ora da noi prescelta e anche successivamente.

Historic location and so much history.
Pros:

Majestic location.

Cons:

The multiple e-mails with attachments in order to check in is cumbersome for busy travelers on the road. You have to request a code to open the gate for parking. Why not just send the code on day of check- in? This was awkward.

Awesome Anniversary stay in Mont Saint Michel.
Pros:

The room was in a great location, with views of the bay. Enjoyed looking out the window. The room was very comfortable. The staff was great and the breakfast very good.

Cons:

There was no elevator, so managing luggage up all those stairs was a bit challenging. Also was disappointed in the restaurant in that we wanted so bad to have the world famous omelet, but because they are so large we wanted to share one and were told we could not, but then several tables around us were sharing one, so bummed that we were told no, so we didn't order one.

Pros:

L'emplacement est superbe, le personnel est super et le petit déjeuner est vraiment génial.

Cons:

En revanche, le confort des chambres laisse à désirer, surtout lorsque vous payez 500 euros pour 2 nuits... Les lits sont vieux et durs, il n'y a pas de rideau de douche, pas de pression (je n'ai pas pu me laver les cheveux), le meuble de la salle de bain était alors gondolé à force de prendre l'eau. Tout est vieux, c'est vraiment dommage.
