For visitors with rental cars (the preferred choice for those who want to see/do a lot since public transportation on the island is poor) this place is in a convenient location between town and airport, has lots of free on-site parking too. Without the tight traffic in town (which is easy walk from hotel). And you can stroll to the beach where there are 2 nice restaurants. Rooms and baths are large for a European hotel in this price range. Clean and bright with decent beds, nice balconies. On a sunny day the poolside deck is gorgeous if you want to laze around after sighteeing (but BYOB since the hotel doesn't have a bar). The hotel seems to be in the process of remodel and upgrade, so there were issues like awaiting the new elevator (if you don't want to shlep luggage up stairs, better get a first floor room for now), and installation of the new shower curtains, soap dishes, and other minor fixtures would really help! I stayed towards the end of the off season so hopefully all will be shipshape by summer. It also helps to be able to speak French since there was only one person on staff (a very helpful gentleman) who had any command of English. Address any matters requiring staff assistance during the day since there is no night clerk on duty. As I said, this is the sort of place for the independent traveler who can hit the ground running and doesn't need a lot of hand-holding. I wouldn't mind staying again once the upgrades are done.
