Rapport qualité prix imbattable
Pros:

Un accueil ultra sympathique. Une vue exceptionnelle de notre chambre. L’équipement fourni, machine à café, bouilloire, toaster, micro-ondes, vraie vaisselle. Chambre rénovée et propre. Prix tout doux.

Cons:

Comme dans tous les motels, une insonorisation manquante…

Camera con vista meravigliosa sul Cabot Trail
Pros:

Stanza con una vista veramente bellissima! Posizione eccellente per fare il Cabot trail in macchina. Ci ha accolto presso la struttura Vince, che è stato davvero gentile ed amichevole. Abbiamo apprezzato che ci fosse del caffè per la mattina. molto apprezzato anche il parcheggio, proprio davanti alla camera. Camere molto silenziose.

Cons:

È una considerazione assolutamente personale, ma non ho trovato particolarmente gradevole il letto. Sopra al materasso penso ci fosse una sorta di copertura di plastica protettiva: non è particolarmente confortevole quando si dorme e magari si tende a rigirarsi spesso sul letto..ma è un dettaglio assolutamente di carattere personale e nel complesso la camera e la struttura meritano moltissimo!
