Enkel standard men okey!

Det är ett hostel så inte jämförbart med ett hotell, men okey att sova över för en natt eller 2. Service något begränsad då receptionen bara är öppen några timmar morgon och kväll. Dock finns möjlighet till kaffe och te hela dygnet. Enkel standard i rum och allmänna utrymmen. Frukost dock helt okey.

Essayez et vous verrez!

Moi qui cherchait la tranquillité, j'étais servi. L'hôtel est en dehors de la ville ce qui pourrait être gênant pour certains. La chambre à plus lits à étage était simple, mes colocataires sympathiques. WC douches en parfait état de fonctionnement. Le meilleur pour la fin...un petit déjeuner buffet trop bien avec tout ce qu'il faut pour bien commencer la journée.
