    Have to say that the mattress could have been newer - it had a roll into the centre For a one night stay room size ok - not so big for more than 2

    Easy to find and good for a one night stay - easy to park and helpful staff

    Pleasant, relaxing stay close to A10

    Although the room was very suitable, with a balcony and green area outside, I felt the  €9 charge for my dog was excessive. I provide my own dog bedding and ensure there's no extra cleaning duties for the staff. It's also clear that many people don't pick up after their dogs on the grassed area. This is not the fault of the hotel, but maybe provision of a few poo bags, signage and bins in the area would help.

    I received a warm welcome at reception. My room, located in the annexe building behind the carpark, was very pleasant. It was bright and airy, with a balcony, a completely new bathroom, a kettle provided, and a very comfortable bed with quality bedding. The hotel is only a couple of minutes drive from the A10, with plentiful free parking. Saintes centre is only 5 mins drive (again with abundant free parking) and the historic centre is well worth a visit, even having a Gallic-Roman amphitheatre.

    Neat and clean hotel offering a friendly and professional welcome. The rooms are basic but spotless and comfortable, with everything you need for a quiet night's sleep. We enjoyed the breakfast, which comprised the usual fresh bread, croissants, yoghurts etc. Conveniently located if you are traveling on the A10, with a few restaurants withing walking distance. - we had a good meal at the Bistro Regent.

    As Brits we would have liked milk sachets for tea! We didn’t ask so unsure whether these could have been provided.

    Location just of A10. Easy access next door to restaurant and 5 mins car to centre parking for bars, restaurants etc. Modern bathroom. Enviro friendly. Very friendly staff. For a small hotel it provides excellent value for money and we would certainly return.

    Great location for a stopover on a long journey as the hotel is just a couple of minutes off the motorway. A 15-20 minute walks puts you into the lovely Saintes town center which is well worth a visit.

    This is very minor, but we could only access the restaurant by stairs, which is difficult with a pram.

    Considering the hotel is near a busy road, it is very quiet. The breakfast was good. We requested a cot for our baby and this was provided. The shower had good water pressure.

    The pricing per pet per night is a little steep, especially if your dogs are small like ours.

    This is a regular stopping off point for us on our drive to Portugal, just a few minutes off the motorway. It’s always clean and relatively comfortable with some good restaurants nearby and some shops just down the road.
