gîte du château

😊: Location - close to the canal and to a bakery for the morning. Could enter/ checkout via lockbox so free to do so when we liked.. 😢: Paying extra for linen. No freezer compartment in fridge. We weren't that sure what the arrangements were for recycling and It would have been good to have some coffee there, or to know what type of coffee machine there was (but those are pretty minor).

😊: It was a lovely apartment and felt like home. 😢: Nothing.

😊: Flexible check in time. 😢: Downgraded my room because the room that I booked was “under construction”. Bed was very uncomfortable and small. Room was very cold and smelled like cheese. Didn’t feel hygienic. No soap or anything. Matched the surroundings very well..

😊: Well equipped, spacious and nearby parking for type vans . Good heating and all well explained.. 😢: N/A.

😊: Location. You can see the river from the kitchen.The property itself is nice.. 😢: No window treatments in the kitchen and sitting room. Which doesn't allow you any privacy, especially being on a busy road.. I'd rather the towel and bedding charge (€7 for 1 person) was included. As you have to leave cash and this could reduce your time to enjoy yourself, having to find a cash point. Luckily I have a car, but it's still an inconvenience. You can't see your car parked. Air flow. If you have children and/or dogs, you can't have the back door open as there's no gate to the main road..
