Es una posada como las de antaño, el jardín muy cuidado y bonito. Lo que menos nos ha gustado ha sido que está un poco anticuado. El desayuno es "demasiado de casa" cuando llegas tienes en la mesa un trozo de pan, mantequilla, mermelada o aceite, una loncha de queso y una loncha de jamón York, una pasta, zumo de naranja y café, te, etc. Cereales, cola cao... Es correcto, pero creo que es un poco anticuado.

Buena atención y parking gratuito

Quiero destacar la amabilidad del personal y la posibilidad de tener parking gratuito. También la ubicación de la posada. Sin embargo, la cama y almohadas son incómodas, la habitación no tiene ni siquiera ventilador, la TV del cuarto es demasiado pequeña y el desayuno es básico.

La pension est dans une vielle bâtisse en pierre qui ne manque pas de cachet. l'intérieur est nickel. Le service est charmant et efficace. Que demander de plus? Seul bémol la chambre manque un peu de lumière naturelle.
