"Great location for easy walking access to all shopping restaurants etc Our room was not cleaned at all one day and another day we had to ask for cups glasses etc. Housekeeping needs improvement We do not recommend breakfast. Only had it one day and opted to have breakfast elsewhere."
"Very pretty property. Very helpful staff."
Maison du Collectionneur
Maison du Collectionneur"This was a very quaint hotel, more like an inn or b & b. One HUGE drawback was the access to the rooms. There is no elevator and the stairs are windy and very steep. We could not get our luggage upstairs and had to leave them in the small lounge/dining area. We are technically "seniors" but very active. Anyone would have difficulty with these stairs. If you don't have big suitcases or mind stairs, we would recommend."
