Very nice hotel of charm and character, great staff and superb position.
Pros:

We used the code to lower the barrier and drive into town and parked right outside the hotel for 15 euros per day. Check in was simple/quick and the room was clean and tidy with reasonable to good facilities, given it is a hotel of character. We spent most of the time cycling and walking and enjoyed the location, which is superb. Returning from our days out the pool was lovely way to relax. Staff very nice and helpful.

Cons:

We had fairly large suitcases so the room was little tight as it also has two large chairs and a table. It was 37 degrees C at the end of our stay and a fridge would have helped. There was a bit of furniture moving going on in the morning so a little noise, nothing serious.

Bon début mais fin très décevante
Pros:

La gentillesse du personnel féminin à l’accueil. L’emplacement

Cons:

Je séjournais dans cet hôtel car ma voiture était en panne, j’ai été informée de la réparation de mon véhicule à 13h, j’en ai informé le responsable qui m’a quand même facturé la nuit supplémentaire à 130€, alors que l’hôtel n’était pas plein !
Les chambres sont bruyantes
