It was fine, but the first night horrible there was a couple fighting not manners at all… the worst was that the problem was not handle at all until the next day. So not resting at all. Nice homey breakfast included, very appreciated and front desk lady helpful and gentle. Room clean bed comfortable view to the garden. Parking outside the room. 2 doors access to the room. 1 interior and de other to the parking lot / garden. They must pay attention having the boiling water machine clean and the microwave.

Hotel correct pour une nuit. Grand lit. Coté propreté, il devrait y avoir de l'amélioration. Il y avait des araignées et des mouches dans la chambre. Nous avons trouves des poils/cheveux dans les draps. Beaucoup de trace de doigt sur les murs. Aucun cadran dans la chambre. Aucune isolation sonore (quand ce sont les corbeaux dehors qui te reveille le matin). Bon service au déjeuner.

We stayed here last minute and, while we’re used to higher-end hotels, we were pleasantly surprised. For the price, it was really not that bad. The staff were very friendly, and we’d most likely return in the future. If they were to invest a bit in the property, it could really become a great place. Also, there were quite a few good restaurants not too far from the motel, which was a nice bonus
