We arrived late and left early to catch a ferry to Brittany. It was easy to find and park. Reception staff were welcoming. Room was spacious and clean. The ferry terminal is a few minutes drive away.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
Very dirty tables inside and out, broken outside chairs. At breakfast it took more than several attempts to find clean knife and forks, the chair that i nearly sat on at our breakfast table was filthy. Who i believe was the manager we spoke to during check in wasn't pleasant in the slightest. We do not recommend using the hotel at all.

Great for somewhere to lay your head. Not really designed for families, there was no children's menu. The sofa bed was extremely uncomfortable. The staff were very friendly.
