Ok for a stop over, managed to find a lovely bar nearby, the atmosphere in the hotel bar was not for us. If you have mobility problems check your room is not in the area where there are flights of stairs & no lift.

Parking there is hard to figure out, even with the instructions, it wasn't clearly identified where to find the parking lot. One gentleman, who I'm not entirely sure was actually staff, was kind to help us and let us through the gate. You have to circle the large block to get back around to the parking entrance. For those unfamiliar with the property, it's almost impossible to know where it is as it's definitely not obvious in relation to where you enter the hotel to check in. Staff were friendly enough, but there seemed to only be one dedicated staff member on duty and they were also the bartender at the hotel so we had to check in at the bar. Not a deal breaker, just out of the ordinary. Seemed to be a central spot for disorderly conduct. Cops with canine regularly patrolled the front walkway of the hotel where the bar is located to move the drunks along from loitering, loudly.

We booked the wrong dates and tried to change. Hotels.com staff couldn’t change the booking as no one at the hotel spoke English. We tried via email and never got a response, so asked our French Airbnb hosts to call, hotel refused to do anything over the phone and said they would reply to our email. Never heard from them. Terrible customer service avoid like the plague
