"very kind people "

"Lovely clean, warm room, on a cold windy night. Friendly staff, super breakfast. Amazing view."

"Great hotel in beautiful town. Was upgraded free of charge as the room we booked was not easily accessible with a small baby and pushchair. Room was spacious snd clean. Breakfast was good with amazing fresh orange juice!"

"Efficient, courteous and genuinely caring staff. The food in the gastronomic restaurant is excellent. The property is very quiet."

"The reviews online rave about the very nice rooms. The reviews and hotel info do not make clear that arriving with a car is very difficult logistically. The hotel boat is moored where there is only a pedestrian footpath. There is no where close by to drop the bags for easy access, many meters from where cars are allowed. There are no actual staff at the location, only virtual staff who cannot help with the luggage drop or movement. You get parking recommendations only after the cancel window has closed and in reality, the two car parks within 10 minute walk are community lots filled by local apartment dwellers. You can wait around for a spot to open but locals scout openings for their friends and not friendly to outsiders waiting. If you have any mobility issues, be aware you may need to carry/pull your suitcases at least 700 kilometers that could include stairs. So getting to La Peniche may require escape room types logic skills to achieve if you are older, have any mobility issues, and arrive by car. We failed and forfeited a nights stay because we could not make it work. In retrospect, plan for a more secure car park further away ( like the Greco Roman Museum lot) and taxi as close as you can to the boat."

"Located on the south side of Lyon this is a great spot to stop for a smooth departure in the morning."

"Not sure if it was because it was end of season but whole area in need of some tlc. Restaurant closed apart from pre ordered breakfast. Kitchen drawers had food bits in them an floor dirty. Not shown where bins or indoor pool was on arrival. Chair broken. A shame as has potential."

"The house has great bones and is in a wonderful location in the adorable village of St Felicien. The host was communicative and polite. The main problem is that the interior furnishings haven't been updated - the beds and mattresses are all very old. The kitchen had dishes and utensils, but we had to rewash everything. Many of the surfaces were dusty. It smelled like it had been shuttered for a while. We ended up getting a room at the local hotel after a single night. I hate to post a negative review, and the house has a lot of potential, but we felt it truly wasn't worth paying for in this condition. "

"Easy location and comfortable stay for one night to attend Jazz à Vienne. Was able to work easily for the afternoon from the desk in the room. Small room but had everything needed. Staff were very friendly and helpful too."
