just for a night
We were travelling home and booked the hotel from where we had spent our holidays. We just wanted a bed for a night and a breakfast - and we got that. The staff was very nice and helpful in many perspectives but the limits of the place didn't really leave them a chance to make this a very pleasant stay. Stay there if you just need a place with nice staff beside a quick french American Steak House. Don't stay there if you want a hidden gem.

Chambre de passage sur la route
Velux qui fermait mal à l'étage. Le fait de ne pas avoir de climatisation mais je n'avais lu avant de réserver. Rideaux trop court pour couvrir toute la fenêtre et vieux. Salle de bain ok.

Good staff. Terrible hotel. Problem in every room.
Room heaters very weak, almost zero. I have very good tolerance with cold, but when it's -3°C outside and the heaters almost don't work, no matter what, you'll at least hope there's hot water in the night? But no! Even hot water is not available at night, it seems to be only in the mornings. I was shivering and freezing and slept with loads of layers after hours of trying to fall asleep in the cold. Barely got in 4 hours of sleep, then went for breakfast (I had already paid for it). Half the fruits were stale, the eggs boiler was connected but even after trying 2 times of 10 min and with assistance of the staff, the eggs never boiled. I just left the hotel without proper breakfast as I did not want to be late for my business meetings, deciding I'll never ever return to this establishment again. The staff was professional, but the hotel needs serious maintenance and 24 hours assistance as bare minimum. Please avoid
