Very homely.
Pros:

The lady in charge was delightful. She allowed me stay on for a few extra hours as I was waiting for the ferry in the late afternoon. She was very kind.

Pour une nuit cela ne s’est pas trop mal passé, y compris pour les enfants. Si plus de nuits envisagées, assurément nous
Pros:

La gentillesse de l’hôtesse
Le petit déjeuner où rien de manquait. Cependant la salle est plutôt petite !
Chambre côté cour, donc pas de bruit de la rue !
Accueil pas très engageant : accumulation au pied de l’escalier des sacs de linge, des seaux , des balais ….sentiment de grosse négligence !

Cons:

Attendre notre arrivée pour signaler que dans la 2e chambre, il n’y aura pas 2 lits simples mais 1 lit pour 2, des enfants en l’occurrence, c’est un peu moyen ! On ne découvre pas ce détail la veille pour le lendemain
Pas de fermeture de porte à clé, de l’intérieur des WC ni salle de bains. Chambre particulièrement vétuste. Dans la chambre des enfants, un énorme écran de TV (?) posé contre un meuble qui ne demandait qu’à glisser ….

Pros:

Privat geführtes kleines und sehr sympathisches Hotel.

Cons:

Leider hat bei unserer Buchung die Homepage des Hotels nicht funktioniert. So mussten wir die Unterkunft über eine multinationale Firma buchen.
