Je ne le recommande pas
Pros:

Emplacement

Cons:

Petit déjeuner très médiocre avec très peu de choix
Salle de bains dans son jus, difficile de prendre une douche, éclaboussures permanentes, peu de débit d’eau. Une horreur !
Intérieur à l’opposé de l’image extérieure du bâtiment
Dommage !

This is the fourth time we have stayed here and staff are always friendly and polite .
Pros:

The room was clean and comfortable, the bathroom as well. Breakfast was very good. You got a great choice of cereal and cooked foods. Dinner was delicious.

Cons:

Nothing really although I have had a knee operation and was disappointed there wasn’t a disabled toilet in any room.

Not pleasant
Pros:

The staff were great and very helpful

Cons:

The top floor room was terrible, zero (and I mean zero) water pressure - see the picture - this was on full!!!

One of the “clean towels” appeared to have stool on it!
The wallpaper was peeling

The parking if aweful!

Overall it just wasn’t nice!

Delusione non lo rifarei.
Pros:

L’esterno era piuttosto bello

Cons:

Struttura molto vecchia e poco tenuta con riparazioni a vista , moquette consunta che dava sensazione di trasandato seppur non fosse sporca. Paese fantasma
