I had a great stay at this hotel, enjoying its charming vintage decor and the handy access to the beach just steps away. The pool area was a relaxing retreat, and I appreciated the free parking, which is a blessing in Arcachon. However, breakfast was subpar and left much to be desired. Overall, I found it a decent value for the location, but some amenities felt outdated.
