Sijainti hyvä mutta huoneiston esittelyssä oleviin kuviin ei voi luottaa .
Pros:

Sijainti hyvä😊

Cons:

Huoneiston kuvat olivat eriä mitä sijainti .
Kuvissa huoneiston parveke oli etelään ja sen perusteella valitsimme sen mutta kun saavuimme paikan päälle niin opastus video paljasti parvekkeen olevan pohjoiseen eikä sitä saanut muutettua siihen mistä mielestämme olimme maksaneet.

Une endroit sympa pour se reposer au bors de la piscine
Pros:

Une résidence à taille humaine par rapport aux hôtels XXL d'à côté. Du coup piscine calme et sans musique avec beaucoup de personnes âgées (qui réservent leur transat dès le matin) mais pas de problème en février il en reste. Possibilité de se garer dans la résidence sur un parking collectif où là aussi il y a des places en février. Heureusement car se garer dans la rue est quasiment impossible avec les gens qui s'y garent pour aller à la plage ou dans les hôtels autour. Plein de petits surpermarchés très proches.

Cons:

La route côté chambre où il y a du trafic jour et nuit.

Pros:

Address location , kitchen facilities, cleanliness

Cons:

Apartment location prevented the sun shining on the apartment / balcony and so could not get any sun when in apartment and also resulting in being unable to dry clothes adequately out on the cloths horse supplied on the balcony. Very disappointing given it's a sun holiday but had to be elsewhere other than the apartment to get the sun. Apartment itself was good but not position in the complex, in absence of sunshine, as explained.

Pros:

Tidy and comfort living place. Love to book again.

Cons:

The pillow is a bit thin, I got stiff neck. But it very depends on one person's preference.

Un séjour agréable dans un environnement sympathique
Pros:

L’endroit est charmant, piscine et jardins bien entretenus . C’est calme et bien situé géographiquement. L’appartement lui est vieillot, mais confortable, avec tout ce qu’il faut .
