Hôtel du Manoir

Hampton by Hilton Tours Centre
The pillows in the room were horrible, completely flat and there were no extras. I asked for additional at the front desk but they couldn’t supply any. The parking is a public lot across the street, this should be in the description instead of saying parking available.
