KYRIAD DIRECT Tours Sud - Chambray Lès Tours
Easy on site parking and speedy check-in. Nice & clean all round. Friendly staff. Enjoyable breakfast. In my opinion pillows could be larger. Only other comment would be that although the bathroom is clean & modern maybe a little compact for some guests, possibly.
