10/10 Excellent
"Nous avons séjourné dans la chambre familiale pour 3 adultes et un bébé, et nous en sommes ravis ! La chambre était parfaitement adaptée à notre famille, avec deux espaces de couchage bien distincts, une grande salle de bain, des toilettes séparées et un excellent niveau de confort. Nous avons particulièrement apprécié le calme de la chambre ainsi que la climatisation, présente dans chacune des deux pièces, ce qui a rendu notre séjour très agréable. Un immense bravo à toute l’équipe pour son accueil exceptionnel ! Nous avons été reçus avec beaucoup de gentillesse, de bonne humeur et de professionnalisme. Une mention toute particulière à la réceptionniste qui était présente hier en fin d’après-midi : je ne me souviens malheureusement plus de son prénom, mais son sourire, sa bonne humeur communicative et sa sympathie ont marqué notre séjour. Un grand merci à elle ! Nous avons également beaucoup apprécié les cafés et thés mis gratuitement à disposition des clients. C’est une attention qui fait vraiment plaisir et qui apporte un véritable plus à l’expérience. Autre point très appréciable : les nombreuses places de parking à proximité de l’hôtel, ainsi que la présence de bornes de recharge Tesla, un véritable avantage pour les voyageurs en véhicule électrique. En résumé, nous avons passé un excellent séjour et nous remercions chaleureusement toute l’équipe pour son accueil et son professionnalisme. Nous reviendrons avec grand plaisir, c’est une certitude !"
