Good place. Nice stay. Nice staff. Only complaint: no dishwasher when they ask you to do the dishes after use. Hand washing with no sink is difficult, had to use toilet sink. Hence 4 stars.

Beau site familial, petite problèmes à régler

Super beau site familial avec un grand potentiel, qui doit juste régler ses petits problèmes. Le plus gros problème est le wifi, extrêmement instable. C'est un problème particulièrement important parce que la télé dans les chambres est une FireTV qui dépend entièrement du wifi. Il n'y a pas de câble ou d'antenne, seulement de l'Internet. Dans un hôtel, on s'attend à un service de câble, mais si on fait le choix de ne pas en avoir, il faut au moins que l'alternative fonctionne bien... La salle de jeu est super, mais il faudrait réparer ou remplacer les jeux brisés (hockey sur table et "air hockey"). La famille en sort tout de même satisfaite!
