Low standard

Really low standard for the price we paid. Very simple. Not hotel standard. No air conditioner or any other way to cool down the room. Far from the senter, but near the beach. The room was clean.

Personnel accueillant, propre, Mais literie inconfortable, trop dur pour ceux qui aiment mais pour moi difficile de dormir... PAS de climatisation, juste un appareil ventilateur posé sur le sol et bruyant et peu efficace ! Obligé d'ouvrir la fenêtre pour ne pas avoir chaud en Aout avec la fenêtre ouverte c'est bruyant(voitures, camions, gens qui parlent et tout résonne car notre chambre donnait sur le parking qui est enclavée et donc cela résonne) et avec les lampadaires c'est trop lumineux dans la chambre et gêne pour dormir, le problème c'est qu'avec la fenêtre ouverte vous ne pouvez pas fermer le rideau(très mal pensé) ! Pour résumé : mauvaise expérience, des améliorations doivent être mise en place.
