HĆ“tel Les Brises

10/10 Excellent
"Staff was very helpful. All the key members spoke enough English to allow three bricks and one American to communicate location of the hotel is excellent. I recommend staying on the lower floors once you get above the third floor. The water pressure in the shower is weak thatā€™s the only negative I can possibly think of breakfast was great. Would definitely go back again."
