Bon séjour, le personnel est chaleureux et à notre écoute. Gros plus sur la Clim en période de canicule. L’emplacement de l’hôtel est pratique, dans une zone commerciale, très accessible en voiture. En revanche, s’il faut venir en transport ce n’est pas le plus idéal. Seul petit bémol : les photos sur le site Hôtel.com, l’hôtel n’est pas vers la mer. Les chambres sont propres (mais mal insonorisées). Quand au petit déjeuner, il est varié et correct. Merci à toute L’équipe !

Peut être pas de chance chambre supérieure pas digne d un 3 étoiles le bouchon du lavabo qui retient l eau le wc bouché et le fond de la cuvette marron…..et le pompon le deuxième petit déjeuner…..2 machines à café en panne donc pas de café le buffet vide ainsi que le distributeur de jus d orange heureusement nous n étions pas pressés près de 3 quart d heure d attente il n avait pas oublié d encaisser la veille notre prestation.je tiens à préciser que la personne qui servait été à la fois incompétente et à la limite de la politesse un peu trop ironique à mon goût….il faut qu’elle se remette en question ou alors peut être changer de métier.
