Paisible
Pros:

L'accueil, l'emplacement, la tranquilité, la propreté de la chambre, incroyable, magnifique. La serveuse qui s'est occupée de nous, au restaurant, pendant notre diner était très serviable, très gentille, souriante. C'est de plus en plus rare dans le domaine de la restauration

Cons:

La personne qui nous a accueilli au restaurant était un peu froid, pas accueillant du tout.
