Auberge des Etangs

Not a friendly welcome. The man and woman who dealt with us did that and no more. We felt we were in the way. We arrived late afternoon and due to driving for many hours we asked if the restaurant would be open. We were told yes at 7 ! Two minutes later we were told the restaurant wouldn’t be open ! Ok , so we asked if there was a nearby restaurant. The man said yes and gave us directions for the next village. We drove there and the restaurant was closed. We tried several local villages , all places to eat were closed ! By the time we got back the man and woman and everyone else had gone ! Previous to this we were told to only use a very steep fire escape to get to and from our room ! Not safe , one slip could have been serious. So we went to bed with no food and no water , nothing was provided in the room. Lesson learnt and we would not get caught out like that again. The bed was comfortable and the water was hot for the shower. The toilet had no door on ! The best thing was the breakfast , served by a different man , who was very friendly and provided everything we asked for. It was a great continental breakfast , which we were ready for ! No vending machines and nowhere to get a drink even !
