RĂ©sidence agrĂ©able dans l’ensemble, mais sans serv

Dans l’ensemble, le sĂ©jour s’est bien passĂ©, mais il faut savoir que ce n’est pas un hĂŽtel classique, plutĂŽt une rĂ©sidence sans services. Pas de bar, de restaurant, ni salle de sport. Il y a bien une piscine commune, mais elle manque de charme et l’accĂšs se fait en traversant un parking, ce qui n’est pas idĂ©al. L’accueil a Ă©tĂ© trĂšs sympathique et rĂ©actif : Ă  chaque demande, le personnel rĂ©pondait rapidement et avec le sourire. C’est un vrai point fort. L’appartement Ă©tait grand et spacieux, mais il manque clairement de finitions. Le mĂ©nage est fait, mais de maniĂšre assez superficielle : miroirs, robinetterie, et autres dĂ©tails sont un peu nĂ©gligĂ©s. Dommage, car avec un peu plus de soin, le confort serait bien meilleur.
