10/10 Excellent

Notre séjour était parfait! La chambre avec cuisine était moderne, spacieuse et très propre. Le personnel était très sympathique et accueillant. Nous avions également droit à 2 consommations gratuites par personne durant le « happy hour », une agréable surprise que nous avons appris dès notre arrivée. La buanderie était propre et fonctionnelle (4$/ lessive). Le buffet du déjeuner était petit mais suffisant. Nous sommes très satisfaits de notre court séjour!
