The staff at reception was absolutely amazing. The only downside is the hotel is far from the centre without a car. Not walkable.

Good stop over hotel with ample parking. Staff very helpful and friendly. The manager is also looking to improve the hotel. We chose a small room which was very small especially having a dog. However, it served a purpose. Excellent shower. Restaurant adjacent for which you get a 15% discount. Food was fine but we didn't find the staff that friendly.

I messsged to say I would arrive in the early hours of the morning (twice) and did not hear anything back. When I arrived the 24/7 check in machine was turned off and I had to sleep in the car. I expect a full refund

Very convenient and easy to find.
Reception not open till 5pm was inconvenient.
I bought breakfast and went down at 7 as per details, but no sign of anyone or anything. Don't know what's happening there.

The photos shown in the advertising of this hotel didn’t resemble the room we stayed in, in desperate need of modernisation/repair, shower broken, handle from shower room missing, meaning if you shut the door you would not be able to get out, unless someone was in the room. Room was smelly, no lamp shades.
We arrived around 10pm and after finding the hotel, which has its sign obscured by a tree, we couldn’t get in as the main gate was closed, had a intercom on the gate, only to hear a recording in French. There is a restaurant next to the hotel which we went to ask, but then noticed a side gate to the hotel, went in and managed to find someone, who opened the gate to let us drive in, checked in and the person on the desk tried to get us to pay the local tax, which we had already paid when we booked.
It was late and we have had a long drive from the south of France, so just stayed, didn’t bother with breakfast as just wanted to leave. My advice do not stay at this hotel, and I don’t think it should be on the Expedia site. Definitely wasn’t worth the money we paid.

Quelques petites marques d'un hôtel vieillissant, mais dans l'ensemble c'est convenable pour le prix. L'accueil est remarquable, le réceptionniste particulièrement gentil et serviable. Merci.
