I highly recommend this accommodation for trips with female friends or trips with small children.
Pros:

The room was very cute and lovely. The approach to the room was also charming and enhanced the feeling of being on vacation. Breakfast was also wonderful. My daughter wasn't feeling well in the morning, but they were very kind and helpful.

Cons:

I had mentioned at check-in that I wanted to have breakfast early and received their permission, but this hadn't been passed on to the morning staff. When I spoke to the morning staff directly again, they responded quickly and with a smile, despite my unreasonable request.

雰囲気のあるB&B
Pros:

想像していたよりずっと広い部屋でした。部屋のインテリアは可愛くて期待通りでした。スタッフの方はとてもホスピタリティにあふれ、目が合うといつも笑顔で挨拶をしてくれます。朝食はフレンチスタイルかスリランカスタイルのどちらかを選べます。私はスリランカを選び、大正解でした。とても美味しかったです。通りにはかわいいブティックやジュエリーショップがあり、歩いてすぐの場所にビーチもありました。ゴールに行くときはまた泊まりたいです。

Cons:

お部屋は外の光が入らないため、日中の暑い時間に部屋で寛ぐには少し暗かったです。

Pros:

Character filled converted old building. Exceptional location. Great staff and restaurant.

Cons:

Just needed a little more of somewhere to lay your bags. Enough for a single person, not a couple.

安くはなかったけど雰囲気楽しめました。
Pros:

部屋の雰囲気が町のコロニアルな様子とよく合っていて、ほかはずっと無機質な感じだったので、楽しめた。
階下がキッチンだったが、夜は静かになった。サイドランプもいくつかあり、助かった。

Cons:

シャワーブースのガラスが短くて、外にシャワーがいかないように苦労した。荷物を置く場所が少なく、テーブルが非常美不安定だった。朝食はおいしかったが、出てくるまでに時間がかかりすぎた。

Pros:

It was an amazing experience to be staying at Le Jardi Du Fort. Everything was excellent - the location was just so apt because we had senior people in our group! The place in itself was so quirky and very unusual in a brilliant way! All of us enjoyed our stay here.

Cons:

Everything was perfect!
One small point of feedback - one of the bathrooms had a shaky commode. It would be great if you can get it fixed and voila, aside to that, it was just perfect overall! The staff has been lovely and very accommodative!
