L’emplacement

− On nous a jamais changer les draps pendant toutes les sept nuits que l’on a passé. La douche est vraiment très vétuste et santé l’odeur des égouts, on m’a facturé 200 € pour que mon fils reste avec nous et malheureusement il n’a eu ni draps ni un lit d’appoint, rien du tout, au moins une couette, rien du tout alors qu’il faisait très froid dans la chambre malgré la clim qui était à 30°. Il n’y a pas de double vitrage très bruyant avec des travaux qui commençait à 5h du matin et qui finissait très tard dans la nuit aux alentours de minuit on ne pouvait pas se reposer après une journée de marche. Vraiment très dommage mais le personnel de l’accueil était vraiment très sympathique et je trouve vraiment dommage que malgré que j’ai payé en plus pour mon fils pour qu’il reste dans la chambre, il n’ait pas eu de draps, il a eu juste des serviettes qu’il fallait demander à chaque fois ainsi que le papier toilette en étant quatre on nous mettait deux papier toilette, ce n’était pas suffisant et la dernière nuit la femme de ménage en a laisser un Et le ménage étais pas top vraiment dommage
