Pros:

Hotel typique du centre ville à 15mn à pied de la plage et du marché.
Piscine ( pas eu le temps de me baigner.. dommage)

Cons:

Parking proposé, premier arrivé premier servi, place non délimitée.
Personnel d'accueil pas très agréable, pas de bienvenue à l'arrivée, pas de merci pour votre séjour au départ.
Pas d'ascenseur, je le conçois... mais le personnel aurait pu nous proposer de porter les bagages, soit pour le deuxième étage ou pour le troisième étage

Not value for money. Expensive and very disappointing
Pros:

Good location

Cons:

Room too small for two people. Small wardrobe under sloping roof. Could not hang up many clothes. Swimming pool across the car park and very dirty. Description of hotel on Booking.com does match reality. Not good value for money. Half the price would still be expensive. Very disappointing

Sans plus
Pros:

L emplacement, la clim, les volets (chambre bien dans le noir), poss de piscine

Cons:

Acces difficile à l accueil avec les grands escaliers(compliqué pour personnes agees et avec les valises), manque d insonorisation (bruit de fou des femmes de menage le matin dans le couloir), aucun accés eau en pleine canicule il faut payer 1.5 pour de l eau gazeuse pas fraiche, aucun necessaire de toilette. Personnel inexistant et pas tres concerné par nos demandes. Accueil bof. Pour un 3 etoiles au prix de la nuit, c est limite, on dirait plus un 2 etoiles

Pros:

L’hôtel est très sympa dans le style arcachonais. La piscine est un vrai plus et la situation géographique impeccable ni trop près ni trop loin de la plage et des restaurants.
Le personnel est très aimable et disponible.
Le petit déjeuner est bien garni.
En revanche la climatisation n’est pas très puissante mais avec l’air de la mer on ouvre et ça passe.
Nous reviendrons avec grand plaisir.
