Séjour romantique

Hôtel 4 étoiles très bien situé dans une petite ville calme et accueillante. Installations très classes pour un hôtel 4 étoiles. Piscine intérieure avec spa, hamman et sauna (seul bémol. Il faut réserver et avec une durée de 1h) Piscine extérieure avec bar et détente très bien Restaurant très classe et on mange très bien. La chambre et la salle de bain très bien, rien à dire. Lors de notre séjour nous avons vécu un séjour particulier. Le nombres d'incendies a fait que des cendres se sont répandus un peu partout sur la zone de la piscine. Seul chose que je reprocherai à ce séjour c'est l'état de propreté de l'ensemble de l'espace de la piscine extérieure, meubles, sols. A améliorer
