Hôtel Le Tivoli Théopolis

8/10 Good
"It's a 2 Star hotel, so with that in mind I can honestly say it was the cleanest shower we had in a week of travel. Good size room, good size bathroom and recently renovated from the look of it. Breakfast included freshly prepared eggs and GF alternatives. Again, another first after a week of travel. Garage for our motorbike."
