Die gute Lage und dass wir vom Hotel für £6.- eine Parkplatz Lizenz für die umliegenden Parkplätze erhielten. Wir hatten gleich vor dem Hotel einen Parkplatz.

Die Infrastruktur ist in die Jahre gekommen.

Très bien situé, notamment pour les familles, et avec un accueil chaleureux. Malgré que ce soit vieillissant, c''est propre et l’on voit que l’entretien est fait malgré l’usure des installations. Un séjour agréable pour une nuit, mais des travaux de rénovation seraient les bienvenus.

L’hôtel est assez vieillissant : la salle de bain et la moquette mériteraient un vrai rafraîchissement. Présence de quelques moisissures dans la salle de bain ainsi que de rouille sur le porte serviette. L'entrée du bâtiment n'est pas trés claire.
