Favorite spot so far! Nicest people on staff! Lovely room and bathroom!
Pros:

Great location, short easy walk to everything. One of the best breakfasts we’ve had so far in France—and we’ve had a lot of good ones! Delectable homemade yogurt, fresh pastries, local jams and jellies with unique flavors, breads, cheeses, meats, and the most adorable mini crepes you can fill with Nutella or one of those local jams. There’s a beautiful courtyard in the middle where you can dine or just relax. Room was lovely, bathroom was one of the best we’ve had in all our stays on this trip. But the best? Was the amazing staff! So kind, helpful and friendly. Truly went out of their way to make our stay comfortable and happy! Would definitely recommend, and would definitely return!

Exceptional hotel.
Pros:

Great hotel. In the top 3 during our 22 cycle through France. Room was on ground floor, was good sized, bike parking adjacent to the room. Hotel let us check in early. We walked short distance to large outdoor beach bar and restaurant. Lots of laughter, and wonderful view. Highly recommend.
