There was no one in the office in the morning, no breakfast, or anything else. it was all shut. You could not access the big pool. No food at all. I went to a cafe over the road for coffee and cake. However, there was air conditioning, essential as the temp reached 40 degrees. The room itself was adequate, with a small bathroom. It is remote, and is really suitable for someone with own transport.

The place cannot be deemed an hotel, talk less of a 3stars one. It is a Motel, they have no restaurant facility, just the space available. The rooms are very small and the bathroom is a tiny bunker. We were there for a week and they NEVER cleaned the room, not even when specifically requested. The receptionist is genuinely helpful, but there is very little under his control.

Correct, à la hauteur du prix de la nuit. Gérant sympathique. Petit bémol : personnel de chambre inexistant, nous sommes restées 3 nuits, le lit na pas été fait durant le séjour, d'après une femme de chambre croisée la veille du départ, il fallait le stipuler à l'arrivée..?.. Je lui ai demandé un rouleau de papiers toilettes, elle nest jamais revenu vers moi... le soir la réception etait déjà fermée vers 21h donc nous avons dû nous en passer..
