Logement original, calme et confortable en acceptant quelques petites contraintes liées à un bateau ( toilettes) . Pour le propriétaire qui y vit cette péniche et plus qu’un simple hôtel, vous y trouverez un supplément d’âme. Très bien placé par rapport au centre ville et le luxe d’une place de parking pratique et gratuite !!
