3 day coast trip
For a trip in high season, booked the last minute, it was ok considering we had a standard room with a very small shower room and a minute wc room, no shelves or wardrobe to put anything away. The staff was pleasant. The wi-fi was totally useless. Plenty of restaurants to choose from, a grocery just across the street, parking at the back of the hotel, the beach at 5 min walk. We would go back there but not in a standard room for sure, it would have to be a comfort room or better.

Central hotel within walking distance to the beach
The hotel was centrally situated and within walking distance to the beach. The room was comfortable and adequately furnished. It met our needs for our short 3 nights stay. The staff on duty were very helpful, however, we felt they were understaffed at times and could have benefitted from more help.

Hôtel très moyen
hôtel situé à côté de la fête foraine et d'un bar bruyant. Le petit déjeuner prix excessif vu la qualité de la prestation, en prime avec le son d'une radio commerciale dans les oreilles. la réception n'est pas au top de l’accueil et de l'écoute. Le wc dans la chambre est très très exigu.Pas d'ascenseur pour personne handicapé ou vieillissante.

Bon accueil. Chambre nickele. Toilettes un peu petite. Salle de bain petite mais agréable. Aucun bruit, très calme. Piscine, petit jardin ombragé, il est agréable de se balader dans l'hôtel. Excellent. La mer n'est pas loin. On a surtout apprécié le calme, la chambre est très bien. Parfait. A recommander et nous reviendrons.!
