Une belle escale à Benodet

Chambre spacieuse et très agréable, on s’y sent tout de suite chez soi, l’accueil est chaleureux et le personnel est disponible et à l’écoute. Petit bémol sur le petit déjeuner, un peu léger sur sa partie salée mais étant venu un 1/01 nous imputons cela à une visibilité moindre sur les quantité à passer peut être. Pour autant les produits sont de qualité. On reviendra !

Excellent séjour !

Nous sommes restés 2 jours et avons passé un excellent moment ! Merci à Jean-Etienne pour son accueil très chaleureux et aux équipes du matin qui nous ont préparé de très bons petits déjeuners avec des produits frais ! La chambre était joliment décorée et très confortable. Si nous revenons dans la région, nous reviendrons avec grand plaisir ! Je recommande grandement.
