It is what it is, an IBIS, but this was is in very good order, everything works, air conditioning - very necessary when we were there - worked . Shower, excellent, even the liquid soap they provided. The price thro Expedia was 22euros cheaper than posted on the price list and they were full. Breakfast for 9euros was French but OK, lots of it and in a nice enviroment. drinks available in the evening and a good restaurant, we didn't use it in the evening, but it looked good. Reception Staff spoke English with no issue, helped with taxis, not a common item in La Teste or Archacon. You can do a lot worse, perhaps 6 kilometres from the coast is a bit much for those with kids, parking near the beach is manic and impossible. I'd go back, handy for the racecourse.
