The hotel is very tired and dated, definitely not a 3 star,
I would class this as cheap and cheerful,
The breakfast for €10 wasn’t worth it for a couple of croissants and coffee which I couldn’t drink.

The view was spectacular because the hotel is on top of a mountain, so we had a wonderful sleep. There’s limited dining places in walking distance. The breakfast was good. The issue here is that it’s a work in progress. They are still building and ironing out the details.

The hotel is located in a largely residential neighbourhood in the hills above the Var. It is quiet, clean and serves an excellent buffet breakfast. Reception was quick, friendly and efficient. Rooms are good, with a small balcony. Bed was comfortable. Bathrooms are a bit dates and be refreshed. There is a very good restaurant 1 minute walk away.
Located in the middle of nowhere, with 2 close by restaurants. But high up, so was able to see the Bastille Day fireworks.
Nice staff and air con was much needed.
Gemütliches Hotel, mit gutem Service. Die Zimmer sind sauber und gross, aber sehr hellhörig.
Die Lage ist gut, in der Nähe sind Restaurants und Einkaufsmöglichkeiten.

Adequate
Good parking area for vans and RV’s. Friendly staff. Good price. Room was basic, but clean.
I arrived early and they allowed me to check on early which was great. On arriving at my room, The door had been left wide open so anyone could have walked in ( which as a young female on my own I found worrying) checking out the room I found a stain on bedding and the room was very basic! No Tea and coffee facilities, no iron etc! I paid for breakfast but felt it was extremely basic and not worth the price! If I’d known that was the selection I would have just gone to the local shop! The staff were friendly which was nice but the last straw was the WIFI which was completely RUBBISH and kept cutting out continuously was annoying so had to waste my own data just to do simple things like arrange an Uber! Wouldn’t recommend or stay again!

Again it was cheap and cheerful.
However the manager upgraded us to a better room
You pay for what you get.
Breakfast was very disappointing
It's far away from the city, at top of a mountain. We arrived after dark and wondering many times if we were on a wrong way, because nothing suggested there could be a hotel there.
1. Location: terrible
2. Quietness: the location of the hotel is quiet.
3. Quietness in room: bad sound proofing, you can hear your next door is brushing teeth
4. Bed: not comfortable
5. Bath: hot water flows in dribbles

This hotel is further away from main road that map suggests, check-in was ok, room condition was poor with peeling wall paper, plaster falling from ceiling. A 3 person room consisted of a double bed + sofabed this was not clear on booking. Overcharged for breakfast despite confirming at check-in that we were 1 adult + 2 under 12's. No bar or restaurant. There are better options nearer to the main road. Continental breakfast was ok.
