Disappointing

A little disappointed as I had booked a hotel with a restaurant ( helpful when travelling alone with kids) and it was closed for the end of season. The room was also rather basic and smelled of damp. On the positive side, the staff were helpful and the breakfast good. I visit Auron a lot but will stay elsewhere next time.

Good service but...

Very kind and helpful owners who allowed us an early breakfast in order to catch our bus, but the unventilated shower room meant our room had a very unpleasant damp smell. Good meal in restaurant.

Chambre et sanitaire minuscules (pour une nuit ça passe mais pas plus). 115 euros sans le petit déjeuner ce n'est pas justifié. Le petit déjeuner annoncé à 10 euros (approximativement) est à 14 euros. On peut avoir beaucoup mieux pour 146 euros (taxes comprises). Pas de restauration le soir. Le restaurant "les pivotes" fonctionne que pour le petit déjeuner le matin. Sinon emplacement et personnel Ok
