La Duchesse d'Aumale

Le comfort La déco Les équipements

Le manque de marchandise avant on aller et il y avait déjà 2,3 dosette de café et on nous accueiller Avec 2 bouteille de spa maiq il ne le font plis

Goed gelegen, mooi ingericht, goed bed

De inrichting is origineel maar niet handig, de werk bank als aanrecht bij voorbeeld is heel klein en staat overvol, de kraan van de afwasbak is moeilijk bereikbaar. Hoewel de keuken goed uitgerust is, is het niet makkelijk om er te koken. Het huis is heel gehorig. Je hoort letterlijk alles van de bovenburen.

La situation. Le confort. La déco. La petite cour. Tout était parfait. Nous avons passé un excellent séjour. Idéal pour 2 personnes avec un chien. Un grand frigo. Et départ à 11h , c est chouette.

Rien

The location really couldn't be any better. Right in front of a park and a hill where you can start a couple of hikes. 2 minutes away from the main square with shops and restaurants. The place is very cozy and has all the amenities you might need. The hosts were lovely and really easy to contact. Would love to stay here again!!

These are really minor points but maybe just good to know: - the house is old and therefore has wooden floors which means you can hear the people in the flat above quite a bit. This didn't bother us but worth knowing if you are expecting complete silence. - have to pay for the city tax in cash which you leave in a little box. I never carry cash these days so it was a bit inconvenient to have to go take cash out and spend some to get change to put in the box. I would have rather paid it together with the reservation (but a lot of places take the city tax payment like this so not entirely surprising). Again, these are very minor points and overall we had an absolutely fantastic stay.

Cosy and well equipped. Lovely big shower. Great location and easy to find a parking space.

Some noise from nearby flats on one evening.

Excellent quiet location in easy walking distance to local restaurants

Nothing

The location of the apartment was absolutely perfect, and had plenty of onstreet parking - we never once worried about getting parked up in the centre of Spa. It was also super easy to find and close to plenty of restaurants and the Spa baths, which we didn't get time to visit. It was easy to get into the apartment and collect the keys, and the rain shower in the bathroom was much appreciated. Having a television in the bedroom was also helpful as we were there for the 24h Spa GT race, so we could keep up on the action while half asleep. The kitchen was fully stocked with all the things we could've needed to cook with - pots, pans, cutlery, cutting boards, spatterguards, sieves, colanders - you name it, it was there! Plus a kettle, dishwasher, coffee machine, microwave, etc. so it was easy to make basic meals as needed. Really loved the bonus touch of some chocolates and water left on the table when we arrived - much appreciated after the long drive from the UK.

When we first arrived the hosts had opened all the windows as it was a hot day, which was appreciated, but it had let in an awful lot of flies that seemed to be there due to a tree overhanging the small terrace outdoors. The owners obviously can't help that, but it was a little frustrating to spend an hour chasing flies out of the place! We also noticed some ants and Aside from that, the whole apartment could've done with a refresh - a lick of paint, some refurbishment to reinforce the door (which didn't feel super secure) and a good clean would've gone a long way. Also, watch out for the nails that are sticking up from the floor in the main room, as these were a bit of a shock on the feet! (Although they weren't sharp side up, thankfully). The kitchen facilities were appreciated but I didn't cook any special meals, as the kitchenette working space is very small so it wasn't super practical. Also, the bedroom and bed were pretty uncomfortable - the mattress is very thin and the duvet set was way too thick for the 28 degree heatwave that had taken Spa by force.
