Pros:

Lovely quiet place just off the motorway. Restaurant below and we tried the burgers (took them back to our room) which were nice.
There is also a bar/pub adjacent to the restaurant that we would have liked to try, if we had more time.

Cons:

The toilet made a very loud noise/vibration when flushing as it is some type of electro-mechanical retrofit. It's a common solution in these environments and is not a problem if you are expecting the noise.

Dog-friendly and great value for money.
Pros:

Room 16 was on the top floor with an oblique view of the Abbey. It had a bed, small table, chair, TV (French channels) and kettle (paper cups 2 sachets each of coffee and tea; no milk). The bathroom had a sturdy steel bath and piping hot water. Our evening meal was good - I had a vegetarian salad and the cheese platter as my main course and i was more than happy with it; my husband had a main meal; we both had a pudding and a glass of wine - the cost was very reasonable. Breakfast was good (the order is taken the previous evening and served in the hotel dining room). Staff were friendly and cheerful. The location is quiet, but it’s just a 10mn drive directly from the motorway. It served its purpose very well as an overnight stop between Calais and the Alps.

Cons:

WiFi in our room was very poor (its strongest in the bar and dining room).

Embrace the character, and that makes it a great way to start the first leg of our holiday.
Pros:

It made a change to stay in a real place with character rather than these motorway hotels, rooms were quirky with a small village location, locals in the bar and an excellent restaurant.

Cons:

Don't expect it to be pristine and new, it is not, but that is what made it a fun place to stay.
