While the pictures are stunning we expected a more country like setting. Behind the hedge is a large campground which we weren't expecting but it wasn't noisy. The rooms were outdated yet appeared clean until our daughter discovered her sheets were dirty and contained hair. The other beds appeared to have clean linen. The location was reasonably close to downtown and A8 and there was lots of parking. The rooms aren't air conditioned but the kitchenette was fine. Courtyard patio was nice. Don't go for the breakfast as it is sparse and overpriced. Worse, the pastries ran out and weren't replenished, when a staff member finally visited the breakfast room we thought this would be remedied, instead she took the last drop of coffee and didn't bring any more!

I loved to stay at this place 5 years ago on some business trips. They seem to have done nothing to the rooms since then. Nevertheless I still like the self contained studios with a private little patio in front. Good place to relax in the evening. The rooms are well equipped with all you need (plates, glasses, cutlery etc.) but coffee making facilities are somewhat poor. There are washing machines you can use as well.
On the flipside the location is not good if you want to go sightseeing in Aix (30-40 minutes walk to the center) and as there is no air con, the rooms can get unpleasently warm in summer. So I only recommend to stay there in spring or autumn as in winter you are not able to enjoy the little patio and in summer the rooms lack the air con.

Need we say more! Thıs was the most dısappointing hotel stay that my friend and I had on our whole holiday. It took us well over an hour to fınd the hotel after arrıvıng into the town. Tnıs was after stoppıng for directions from locals as well as askıng the İbıs Hotel (next door!!!) where ıt was. There were NO signs to the hotel that were vısible from the roadsıde and arrivıng late ın the evning was a nıghtmare. To top ıt off the reception closes at 9pm so luckily we had called ın advance to let them know that we were arrivıng late and for a key to be left ın a safe place for us. Once we arrived there were no lifts so we had to drag our heavy suitcases up about 20 stairs whıch Im sure woke everyone up. The room was VERY stuffy and having no aır conditioning was just the icing on the cake to a very bad hotel experience!

I selected this hotel somewhat at the last minute based on the Trip Advisor "top value" recommendation.

The staff were nice, and there was free parking, but other than that I don't have much good to say. The hotel is not walking distance to the center of Aix, which I knew when I booked, but I thought I'd be getting a nice room as a compromise. The room was very basic and worn out, and if I had to do it over again I'd definitely spend a little more and stay at another more central location.
