Hôtel situé à proximité de l'aéroport, au calme. L'établissement est globalement agréable et propre. Notre chambre familiale était correct malgré une porte intérieure qu'on ne pouvait pas fermer car elle accrochait sur la moquette. De longs couloirs qui desservent les chambres avant de pouvoir accéder à la salle du petit déjeuner. Le petit déjeuner est diversifié, il y a du choix. Dommage, cependant qu'à 8h45 il n' y ait plus de Brownie et que celui ci ne soit pas remplacé. La salle est agréable mais la propreté est à revoir : nous étions au fond de la salle, dos contre les baies ou il y avait de belles toiles d'araignées dans les angles...

Pas top pour un 4 étoiles

Rideau mais qui ferme pas jusqu'au bout, la lumière du parking qui reste toute la nuit allumé m'a empêché de dormir... malheureusement pas le bon choix de chambre, va et vient de voiture électrique qui charge avec des gens qui attendent dans leurs voitures.... pour moi c'est un très bon 3 etoiles mais pas un 4 étoiles.

4 étoiles ? Vraiment ?! Eau chaude en option

Dans la 1ère chambre qui m'a été donnée, les lumières murales ne fonctionnaient pas. Vu l'heure tardive et étant dans l'impossibilité de changer les ampoules, une autre chambre m'a été allouée avec un lit plus petit. Les toilettes n'étaient pas nettoyées chaque jour lors de mon séjour de 2 nuits (et pas de balai brosse à disposition...). Et il n'y avait pas d'eau chaude le 25/03/25 matin. Bien que se doucher à l'eau froide (voire glaciale) soit revigorant, je préfère nettement l'eau chaude. Je suis allé voir l'accueil qui était déjà au courant de cette panne. Pourtant aucun geste commercial n'a été proposé. Laisser dans la chambre une bouteille en verre quasiment vide à destination des multiples occupants qui louent la chambre n'est pas très hygiénique selon moi. En gros, je suis un habitué des bons hôtels et je dois avouer que j'ai cherché les 4 étoiles pour celui-ci. Peut-être étaient-elles bien cachées ;).
