We had a wonderful stay in this Best Western Hotel. The staff were very friendly, accomodating to us and spoke English. There were transport links via train (Les Salines stop) and bus within a 5-10 minute walk and a few supermarkets nearby. The cleaning was done to a high standard and we had a fast check out. Due to our own mistake we had very little time to get to the airport, and a lovely receptionist at 6:30 am this morning booked us a taxi that managed to save our flight and get us there on time. Would stay again. :)
