Excellente adresse sur la Rochelle
Pros:

Nous avons séjourné une nuit à l'hôtel . La chambre était confortable avec tous les équipements nécessaires. Le balcon très agréable en cette période . L'hôtel est très calme. Le petit déjeuner est excellent, très bien garni . Le personnel très professionnel et sympathique . le parking, facile d'accès et sécurisé .
Pour une étape sur la route des vacances adresse excellente à 2 pas du port .

Cons:

La salle du petit déjeuner . Nous aurions préféré des tables avec des chaises plutôt que des banquettes . Mais pour le reste rien à redire . Tout est parfait .

Très bon séjour, hôtel quali, bien situé, quelques points à améliorer
Pros:

C’est la 3eme année que je reviens. L’hôtel est idéalement situé, il est très bien équipé et le personnel est très agréable.

Cons:

Ma chambre n’a pas été correctement nettoyée : moutons sous le bureau et cheveux et miettes sur le meuble du lavabo. Au petit déjeuner, le serveur du milieux de la salle est très peu réactif et impliqué ! Il prend tout son temps alors qu’on attend qu’il débarrasse. Il fait rien lui demander, ni théière propre ni rien; on dirait qu’il ne travaille pas là.
