“cosy et comme à la maison”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 27 December 2011

small hotel , with great hospitality ! rooms are not large. it is however 50m from the nearest beach and we really enjoyed the view . whatever your need is available ; just ask to the hosts. Indeed there is no restaurant in the hotel, but two restaurants are about 400m by foot easy to reach in summertime; use your bike on the old rail road and you will discover much more about st aygulf and les issambres.
we will surely come again

Room Tip: ask for the two rooms with large terrace, in front of the beach !!!

“Worst experience around Europe”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 6 December 2011

Fortunately we only booked for a night as our trip between destinations would have been too far otherwise. Grubby, unfriendly, & unhelpful.

I suppose the faux plastic battleship with cannons extending from the wall in the entrance should have been a warning.

The owner & his wife were both dismissive, the hotel virtually empty, and the level of disinterest was pervasive. When we asked (in English as our French was severely limited) where we could get something for dinner we were eventually told 'around the corner' (5km around the corner would have been closer to the mark).

The views advertised, were close to non existent as a tree in front of our 'balcony', or more appropriately 'ledge', had been allowed to grow to such an extent that we could see very little else even though it had lost most of its leaves.

The beds were the most uncomfortable that we came across in over 20 bookings that we had around Europe during this trip, and the room gave the distinct air that it was due a renovation (and this had been due for a couple of seasons).

All in all - unless you are desperate - give it a miss.

Room Tip: Giv it a miss unless you are really - & I mean REALLY, desperate

“Nice and simple”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 29 April 2008

Hotel room was simple, mattress was very good,
shower was working partly (not too much warm water).
Nice view over the sea from the room and traffic from the nearby street is audible.
300m to the sand beach, anything more requires a car. This beach is ok, by car you find better ones.

Breakfast was additional and good. Hotel is a good overnight stay for one or more nights. Inside the hotel is nothing to use (no pool, no wifi). Family with kids are welcome.
Very friendly and helpful hosts. Would come back.
