À deux minutes de la marina

J'ai aimé ma petite chambre malgré le matelas très dur. Faut fermer la fenêtre et la porte coulissante pour échapper aux cris des personnes imbibées d'alcool. Belle terrasse sur le toit. Micro-ondes, bouilloire et machine à café dans la cuisinette. Je recommande le restaurant népalais à côté. Gare et terminus d'autocars à moins de 10min de marche.
