  : The location was excellent with close views and walks from the coast.
  : We really wanted to love it, but there were some problems from the start. First of all, there was no flexibility to cancel or change the dates. Even though my credit card was used to book the room. We were required to bring pay the full amount in cash at check in. The key was not at the property but at another location, a completely different town at a completely different hotel and business. There was a bad stink when we walked into the property and we had to open all the windows and air it out for a while before the smell went away. There was a full kitchenette, but no dish soap, hand soap provided for washing dishes. Some of the kitchen items were unclean- when we pulled out the cutting board and it was covered in crumbs from the last guests. We also ran out of toilet paper. There was an issue with the toilet flushing. It would run for a bit after flushing and we had to open the back to jiggle the apparatus to get it to run again. There was only one roll of toilet paper in the bathroom, with no spare rolls. When we ran out on the second day, we had to buy some toilet rolls at the market. Location is beautiful and there are a few restaurants in town. One was never open, the other was booked up each night and the other was available for dinner on the first night. Otherwise there were few other businesses in town. No cafe and no market. The closest market is a tiny Spaar in Wissant, and a giant supermarket in Calais. The town itself is beautiful and great for bike rides and sunset walks, however if you want a few more amenities, there are other towns nearby that might provide a bit more for guests, especially if you need to buy toilet paper yourself.
