Driss, 1-night trip

2/10 Terrible

We had room one and the noise levels were just awful, the room shook as people entered and excited the property. People using the living space were really disrespectful about noise even after being asked twice to keep it down at 7am they were letting kids run around screaming and there was no soundproofing at all. The hotel hot tub wasn’t warm so we were unable to use it.

Bonjour, malheureusement, cet hebergement est situé dans un milieu résidentiel et n'offre pas de service. Il n'y a pas de personnel pour nous accueillir. Par contre, la chambre était correcte. L'isolation est inexistante. Je ne pense pas y retourner; l'eau chaude est tout à fait absente. On doit aimer prendre une douche froide. J'ai quand même réussi à dormir lorsque le salon voisin de ma chambre est devenu silencieux. Merci!

Ce fut une très belle expérience pour nous d’avoir sejourné chez La belle Excuse. On a passé un excellent weekend, la place calme et paisible L’endroit était très propre et agréable. Nous avons cru être chez nous. Il ya eu une coupure d’électricité dans le secteur, et ça a pris des heures avant de revenir mais heureusement la gérante nous a donné la possibilité de rester un peu plus , prendre notre temps avant de quitter l’auberge même après 11h. Rien à dire , mais excellent moment passé pour nous. À refaire

O hotel é maravilhoso. Tem uma estrutura ótima com cozinha completa. Dá para perceber que tudo foi feito com capricho para que as pessoas fiquem bem acomodadas. O ideal é esrar de carro para se deslocar. A estação Le Massif fica razoavelmente próxima.
