"Cosy and comfortable"

7.0

Value for money, clean and comfortable.

On main Rd so lots of traffic noise. The smoking area was outside the windows so the smell came through the cabin and people lingering outside, coming and going throughout the night making it noisy.

La résidence est un peu datée mais tout est très propre et très confortable. L'accueil est particulièrement appréciable.
