Un bel hôtel sur la mer Il s’agit d’un hôtel relativement moderne situé en première ligne de mer. La chambre de 18 m², est spacieuse et moderne, aux tons pastels. La moquette usée devrait être remplacée par du carrelage. La salle de bain est très moderne, deux, taille moyenne, avec une douche et une baignoire à jets. Le balcon offre une vue splendide sur la mer, de même que le 3ème étage qui accueille une piscine sur le toit plat. La petite plage en galets se trouve juste en face : l’eau est très belle et propre. Le petit-déjeuner est très moyen avec avant tout des produits pré-emballés.

È stato difficile da individuare. I cartelli informativi sono troppo prossimi all HOTEL. Esteticamente è bello ma per aver parcheggiato la moto in un garage al coperto completamente vuoto hanno richiesto un supplemento. Colazione sufficiente
