We really enjoyed our stay here at this hotel. Although it’s not accessible by public transport, we got information on a taxi driver from the front desk employee and used him for our trip (we did not have a car rented). It’s really walkable to the beach and street with food/shopping. Employees were very friendly and helpful. Room was clean and spacious, plus the view from the window at sunset was just beautiful. Would recommend this hotel!

Excellent stay. Excellent location to visit all of the D Day beaches and areas. Great breakfast and the whole place is extremely clean. We even extended our stay. Shower is quite small but that is typical of Europe. Place looks like it has been renovated very recently. Parking right outside the door and only 5 minutes walk to all the restaurants and war museum.

Very friendly. We only stayed one night. It gave us some USA motel vibes. The guy at the desk was very nice. He gave us some info about te town when we asked. The room was clean and well kept. Breakfast was small, but very nice. Fresh fruit and a nice choice of bread and cakes.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
We had a two night stop over on our way to Bordeaux immediately before the 80th anniversary of the D-Day landings so the on site parking was very useful. The hotel was ideally located in a quieter area which was an easy and very short walk to the town centre and beaches. The rooms were very comfortable and well presented and the breakfast area similarly well set out and and convenient. Would have preferred a more powerful shower in the room but overall a very enjoyable stay.
