très bien
Pros:

petit déjeuner très correct. l'emplacement est idéal. Un personnel disponible, très dévoué, efficace, compétent et d'une grande gentillesse. L'hôtel est propre.

Cons:

Notre chambre etait un petit peu petite. Il manquerait de quoi poser les valises si vous avez 2 valises (ou deux gros sacs à dos). Il manquerait également une chaise. La penderie était petite pour deux personnes.
