I really wanted to like this property! I was traveling with my puppy and booked a ground floor room with a terrace. I thought the name was a cute homage to the history of the place, but, no the ambience is dark, claustrophobic and uninviting, much like sleeping in a garage I guess (or a 70s roadside motel back in the day before they became "hip," fun and functional). There was grey/black carpet in the darkly painted hallway, with poor lighting that leads to the rooms. The room itself had a low ceiling with the worst hotel lighting I have experienced in the last 15 years. Despite turning on every light in the room, I could not see what I had packed or what my puppy immediately found on the floor (yikes!) without using my phone flashlight. The "terrace" was covered in astroturf and surrounded by ivy. I was there in low season, and the rate was 200 euros for the night, I can't imagine being their "en plein saison" and paying more. I ended up going to the (clean, nicely lit) hotel across the street despite having already paid for the room. The reception associate didn't offer any remedy to the situation (perhaps a different room, an additional light besides my phone, etc) or any sort of compensation for the poorly designed room. Oh well.
