"Je ne sais même pas par où commencer : acceuil peu professionnel, chambre sale, canapé taché , toilette suspendu maintenu par une pierre, vasque du lavabo non fixée, pas d’eau chaude , coupures d’électricité …. Petit déjeuner servi à partir de 9h30 au lieu de 7h30 et plus que douteux ! Un véritable scandale vu le prix de la nuit ! Touriste passez votre chemin …. Cet établissement ne mérite pas son public car il ne le respecte pas !"
