Notre Dame de Marans

If staying in a season other than summer, this may be an okay place. They have a ton of rules and are not really a hotel, more on a medium stay apartment. Full kitchen, which is nice. Extra charges for everything made it feel extremely cheap and had us anxious about random charges the entire stay. The beds are not made on check in. You are expected to mop and vacuum the floors, gather all bed sheets and all trash, do all the dishes and generally do all the things normally a hotel would do for you. We also stayed when it was extremely hot, and ended up sleeping in the car so we weren't just in lakes of sweat. No screens on the windows so bugs would come in immediately if you opened them. Overall, for tourists expecting a hotel experience this isn't it, but for those who know what they are getting (if it isn't too hot) this may be acceptable

What a great pleasure the hotel was. Came for the Caves but would return just for the hotel.
