This is a charming and.very comfortable little hotel. We arrived late after our flight was delayed but the proprietress could not have been more understanding and helpful.
Very friendly personnel, spaceous room, good bed. Quiet environmet. Sufficient and tasty breakfast. Perfect place for us.
Dinner was excellent and so was the breakfast.
There was tea and coffee in the room but supplies were very limited and only tiny paper cups were allowed. Madame would not allow ceramic cups or mugs. A nice pair of ceramic mugs in each room and a good supply of tea bags would greatly enhance the comfort after a long journey.
Easy to find. Friendly welcome. Comfortable room.
No reception before 4pm. Village is very remote and quiet. Everything closed on Saturday afternoon, but had a good evening meal in the village's bistro.
Our stay couldn't have been better, what a lovely host Marie was. An exceptional meal at an extraordinary price after we arrived late. It was, overall, exactly what we wanted from a small hotel for our first night in France.
Nothing!
old building, friendly staff, good location
quite hot at night
thankfully there was a small market and oompah band in the local square on the saturday but sunday was like a ghost town
not impressed with the breakfast
.Tucked away , quiet , clean .pleasant welcome with a big smile.Pretty enclosed garden
Bed was too soft and very low and we rolled to the centre .Cheaply refurbished not in keeping with the lovely old building .Strange choice in art and accessories.Breakfast was nearly €10 euros and mean .2 portions were barely enough for 1 person and certainly not enough for a working man .
Very good
Hotel is kind of hard to find, no parking for cars, it's on public parking lots, which might be to be vaccated due to the set up of market booths
garden room which was fine. staff are welcoming.
nothing to dislike - some updating needed - rooms, showers, ambience.
Good access to centre ville. Walking distance to a variety of facilities. Warm, friendly, welcome. Very comfortable beds.
Good breakfast but not a large selection.
Nice location, everything very clean and a super friendly host.
it was very picturesque and beautifully done. The staff was amazing.
Finding it at night was terribly difficult.
Lovely traditional building in a quiet village setting.

Great location and lovely old building.
All good
