Great location with everything needed for a comfortable stay. Very charming town with quite a few restaurants within easy walk as well as bakeries and wine shops. Maybe better pillows for the bed. As far as free parking, only if you are lucky to find a free spot.

Le logement étant situé en plein centre historique, l’accès en voiture et le stationnement peuvent effectivement être moins directs que dans une zone moderne… mais cela fait aussi partie du charme d’un site classé, avec ses ruelles et son patrimoine préservé.

Weekend anniversaire pour des copains..... Mis a part le chauffage inexistant en bas par un temps hivernale, l appart en lui même est sympa.

Le rdv est chauffé puisqu’il y a une salle de bains, wc et chambre. La seule partie non chauffé est une cage d’escalier!
