Cons:

Le prix des chambres (excessif) mais surtout le coût du petit déjeuner (abusif)
Pas de brosse pour les cuvettes des toilettes.
Pas de distributeur de boissons ou de friandises dans les halls.
Climatisation bridée.

Le petit dej était diversifié. Le personnel était particulièrement agréable et sympathique

Pros:

Le confort, la propreté. Le resto sur place.

Cons:

Les photos de la piscine et l'espace autour sur le site avantage le lieu. Sur place c'est moins enchanteur et plus petit.
Il n'y avait pas de canapé lit contrairement à ce qui était annoncé dans la chambre salon que j'avais sélectionné sur booking. Je l'avais choisi pour que mon fils et moi-même ayont chacun un lit. Décevant

Pros:

Hotel met afgesloten parking, airco en zwembad. Lekker en uitgebreid ontbijt. Zeker aan te raden voor hotel op doorreis of voor bezoek aan Bordeaux (tramhalte vlakbij hotel)

Cons:

Bij aankomst konden we niet meer eten in het restaurant want volzet. Er zijn wel alternatieven in de omgeving zoals bvb. Burger king.
