French adventure, great area restaurant
"Call ahead about parking. Only small cars can park near hotel. Feels impossible to get your car between the walls of driveway but you can. Work was in progress on outside of hotel. No problem. Very old but surface remodel. Quite a travel adventure. Excellent restaurant in area. L’annexe"
