We arrived at 12:30 on Monday. Reception was empty, apart from a sign directing us to the restaurant. They told us that he would be back at 14:00. At 14:30 we checked in!
The room was a dump. A television half the size of a domestic microwave; no tea or coffee making facilities; half the ceiling light bulbs missing; two camp beds to sleep on. The piece de resistance were the en suite facilities, which were in separate rooms, and which could only be accessed across a public corridor. We had to run the gauntlet of other guests passing in order to take a bath or go to the toilet.
The walls were waver thin and the room badly decorated. Watching television quietly at 10 p.m., we were treated to a loud banging from the folks next door. There were beams, but one was so low that my son hit his head on it.
Breakfast had to be ordered by filling out a card the previous night, and was overpriced at 12 Euros.
When leaving, were asked if we enjoyed our stay, I politely said no, and was about to explain why. The look of obvious ennui in the receptionist told me not to bother.
The French twist came on the breakfast menu, where Champagne and Oysters were an option. The service may be appalling, the room was barely habitable and the whole operation was run for the convenience of the people working there. But look! You can have Champagne and Oysters for breakfast!
This place may look pretty, but from the bottom of my heart I urge you to avoid it like the plague! It ruined our holiday.
