Hotel sehr alt. Im Treppenhaus wird versucht mit starkem Duftspray den übel riechenden Duft vom alten Haus zu über dünken. Wir haben das Hotel nur wegen Vendée Globe Event gebucht weil weit und breit alles ausgebucht war. Personal war sehr freundlich und Hilfsbereit.

Hôtel à recommander.

Hôtel très accueillant. Les personnes qui nous ont reçus ont été de bons conseils et sont très sympathiques. Le petit déjeuner est complet. Nous avons eu des viennoiseries et du pain frais. Un gâteau fait maison qui était très bon. Je recommande. Si nous repassons dans la région, nous reviendrons chez vous.
