This hotel is a basic minimalist! Rooms had no Coffee, drawers, not even a picture on the walls. Very basic menu and without a reservation you could not eat dinner in the restaurant. Very clean but not near any attractions.

Great overnight stay prior to getting the ferry, staff friendly and helpful. Nice outside pool and sun loungers in garden area, with small football/tennis nets. We didn’t eat here due to visiting Ouistreham and leaving too early in the morning. Clean and comfortable with a nice modern feel.
