Très bon emplacement et bon hôtel . Je recommande .
Pros:

Les chambres confortables et bien insonorisées. Le petit déjeuner de qualité et copieux mais toujours les mêmes items. Le personnel souriant et agréable. Millie très serviable au bar. Merci à la dame housekeeping d’avoir rajouter les serviettes pour la troisième personne. Délicate attention faite pour l’anniversaire de mon mari .

Cons:

La salle de bain avec sa baignoire et son rideau de douche . Les taches sur la moquette, la fenêtre et la porte qui fermaient mal .
La piscine qui n’est pas gérée par l’hôtel je crois . Ils sont à cheval sur le port du bonnet de bain mais par contre j’ai vu des hommes en short et non maillot de bain lycra et pas sûr que tout le monde se douche avant sinon le personnel était gentil.
