Clean and comfortable, excellent meal and attentive staff
De passage pour deux nuits. Chambre gelée à l'arrivée j'ai du mettre le chauffage de suite. confortable mais pour le prix tv ridicule. Salle de bain propre mais le système de douche est vieillissant, il faut être sous le pommeau de douche car aucune pression. Endroit calme.
Personnel aimable et souriant. Bon repas pas cher. Petit déjeuner copieux. Chambre bien aménagée. Hôtel bien situé. Dommage que les clients qui se lèvent tôt ne respectent pas le sommeil des autres.
Meme si l'accueil nous a un peu deçu en nous reprochant une reservation de chambre familiale (car seule possibilité via internet, la personne a l'accueil ne semblait pas connaitre les ratios chambre double/familiale sur le site), nous avons apprecié la propreté de la chambre et le petit dejeuner copieux pour un 2 etoiles. L'hotel est un peu eloigné de tout mais une bonne etape sur la route du marais poitevin par exemple.
Passabamos de ruta por allí y el descanso fue bueno. Esta adecuado para niños i fue una sorpresa lo de los animales. El restuarante es muy interessante.
cadre super et calme, petits bungalows, pas d'étages, chambre confortable, le seul problème pas de climatisation, pas de volets sur les fenêtres, et par temps chaud on ne peut laisser ouvert les fenêtres car gare aux moustiques super chasse avant de pouvoir dormir! C'est pourquoi la note 3

Chambre sans lampe de chevet . Odeur assez forte dans la Sdb . Personnel très aimable et service au restaurant attentif .
Cet hotel est très bien. Accueil très bon. Nous sommes arrivés en vélos et ils ont su les mettre à l'abri et sous clef. Le restaurant était fermé mais la proximité de Fontenay le Comte 4-5km permet de trouver facilement un autre restaurant. Le petit déj était bon avec la traditionnelle brioche vendénne... Pour la chambre, bon matelas et salle de bain propre.
