The hotel offers clean and well-priced rooms, but what truly stands out is the restaurant where the food is simply amazing. The owner has a very unique charm that you might either love or find off-putting, but it definitely adds character. On the downside, the rooms and bathrooms could use some updates as they feel a bit dated, and we've encountered some issues with comfort in the beds.

The rooms were clean but quite basic, with a somewhat dated feel. Our bed wasn't very comfortable, as we both rolled towards the middle.

While the hotel is well-maintained in some aspects, the lack of air-conditioning might be challenging in the warmer months.

I had a delightful experience dining at the restaurant, which truly stands out and keeps me returning each year. The rooms were clean and well-priced, although basic. The food was exceptional, especially the Plat du Jour, and the outdoor seating was a refreshing escape from the heat. It’s a bit of a quirky place, with an owner who's quite a character, but it adds to the charm. I’ll definitely come back next time I’m in the area!
