Personally, I would rate it 4 stars instead of 5. The quality of the restaurant is really poor, with very limited choices, and the food quality is comparable to a school canteen.

Les chambres ont besoins d’un rafraîchissement, la moquette est tachée et le mobilier vieillissant. Il est preférérable de réserver chez un concurrent car pour le même prix vous aurez le petit-déjeuner inclus.
