balanced experience

ideal location quiet area nearby garden derelict access gloomy atmosphere bedroom refreshing
The location was ideal. it was set in a quiet part, yet close to the main square. le jardin garden was also nearby. I found it to be a short walk. the staff offered guidance until i got my bearings.
The access felt derelict. security could easily be a problem. I never felt threatened, though. the bedroom needs refreshing, and the atmosphere was gloomy. it was disappointing.
