"It was very quaint looking had a lot of character.. very old, beautiful wood floors.
The breakfast room was absolutely beautiful, and the breakfast was really good!
There are lots of other areas on site that were also inviting, but the weather is very hot so we did not enjoy those.
The rooms are not very big but adequate for my husband and me.
I would highly recommend this hotel and I would recommend getting a parking space and getting breakfast!"
"Staff was excellent in explaining the location and sites to see. The location is excellent and very quiet. I enjoyed the homemade breakfast items as described previously in prior reviews. The hotel is easy to access and they arranged a taxi to return to the airport to be driven to St Jean de pied pont. You will enjoy a night exploring in Biarritz before the Camino Frances. The French Rivera is beautiful"
