Sehr freundliche Menschen. Uns hat die vom Mansion jeden Nachmittag organisierte Möglichkeit, bei einem Cocktail die anderen Gäste kennenzulernen, sehr gefallen!

Wir waren rundum zufrieden!

"Petit coin de tranquillité"

8.0

Petite pension tres intimiste au cœur du quartier historique de galveston La demeure est sublime et jenny vous accueille avec le sourire Mention spéciale pour l apéro offert l apres midi qui permet de faire connaissance avec les autres clients. Petit déjeuner au top ! Et délicieux Malgres le couac de la literie le séjour etait tres bien !

Les chambres ont du cachet néanmoins la literie est épouvantable. C est dommage ca gâche le séjour. Notre sommeil n a pas ete de tout repos . Literie a chnger
