客層が良い

7.0

観光場所からとても近くだった 修学旅行と被っても、うるさくないし、逆に客層が良いので落ち着いて利用できた

− 特にないが23時の門限の制限があったので夜は早めに切り上げた点くらい

l emplacement était idéal , un parking gratuit

− la chambre japonaise : les futons étaient vraiment trop fins, j’ai fait plusieurs séjours dans des chambres japonaises, c est ma pire expérience avec un mal de dos .

For my two night stay I felt very at home.

10.0

From the moment I arrived the reception was welcoming. The ambiance and decor are so well done. It was peaceful and calming, exactly what it was meant to be. I wish I had stayed longer. The room was comfortable and the bathtub was perfectly deep and wonderful to soak in. The room temperature was a little warm, but it is the middle of summer. I was so impressed with the staff. I love this place.

− My room was a little warm.
