La literie une catastrophe

Le personnel à l’accueil est serviable et agréable par contre la literie une catastrophe. On distingue bien chaque creux. Prévoir peut être un remplacement partiel de literie

Hôtel confortable

L'hôtel en lui même est moderne et confortable. Son emplacement au sein d'une zone commerciale et d'axes routiers très passants est en revanche peu agréable. Malgré l'amabilité du personnel, c'est un hôtel pratique mais sans âme

Soirée terrible en couple.(mauvaise réception)

Nous avions réservé 1 chambre pour 2 . On arrive à 14h comme noter sur l'annonce d'hôtels.com. Jai poireauté 1/2h avant que la personne ne me réponde car 2 appels pour dans 15j c'était plus important que moi qui étais devant elle. Donc elle m'a dit Non pas avant 15h !!! Mavoir fait poireauté pour juste ce renseignement. 8 personnes attendaient leur chambre le temps que j'étais là !... La nuit des gens parlaient fort dans le couloir et rigolaient comme des fous. Plus jamais l'hypocampe désolée.

Une petite remarque sur la répartition des prises de courant j'en ai eu deux a moins de 60 cm et mon mari aucune a côté de la table de chevet.aujourd'hui avec les téléphones portables il serait judicieux que leur emplacement soit mieux reparti . Hormis ce détail, tout a été parfait

Séjour d'une seule nuit . Hôtel en zone commerciale , donc calme la nuit et à proximité de grandes surfaces pour les courses.
