We received a warm welcome from our hosts, Gerald and Francoise. The studio was very clean and comfortable and they accommodated our request for an extra single bed for our son. Also, our dog was a welcomed guest too. All equipment e.g. kitchen appliances etc, including the quietest kettle ever :) and utilities worked well. Wifi was good too and overall everything met our needs for a very comfortable stay during our visit for the hot air balloon festival. The location itself was quiet yet also in a good sized village with some lovely nature walks nearby - and lots of sunflower fields too! The local boulangerie was great and also the local Carrefour store (just a minute drive away!) was brilliantly stocked with everything we needed in terms of food, drink etc. Perfect. The studio is at the side of the main building and we had clear access and a parking space. We also appreciated the small terrace and swing seat which we enjoyed a couple of times on sunny days. Verdun is a short drive away from Fresnes-en-Woevre (15-20 minutes) and the interactive citadel museum visit was brilliant. Also, not far away is Lac du Madine - one of our favourite places to visit when in the area. Lots of activities for young and old, nice eateries and views too.

The only thing we found a little annoying were flies in the kitchen - at most about 7 or 8 were buzzing around. However, they clearly came in through the windows and are naturally occurring in rural / farming areas. Although a bit annoying we worked around it. We would happily stay here again but it's worth just bearing in mind you may have a few winged visitors :)

The owner had not the kindest attitude when we were asked at what time we would leave: We said: 11:00a.m. He said rather loud so that we understood that there was no flexibility whatsoever (which we weren't asking for anyway): "ok, 11:00 a.m. AT THE LATEST!!!" His wife was nice to us, but we wouldn't stay there again because her husband wasn't the nicest person even if he didn't raise his voice at us again.

Cleanliness, offer to help yourself with drinks from a refrigerator; nice & spacious room, good shower/clean bathroom; nice hosts & good sufficient breakfast.

The water kettle was completely calcified; the entry and stairway was dull and could need a fresh-up; the balcony was ok, but could also need a fresh-up

Superb located close to the motorway and Verdun. Easy to get there and for us ideal as we were transiting through France. Very friendly hosts, although they only speak very little English they made every effort to communicate with us. We were travelling with two dogs and the hosts were very understanding and accommodating. Loved the little breakfast in the morning - the homemade jams are amazing.

Walls are thin - you can hear a bit from other rooms; but that was only a little bother for us as the dogs kept barking and we really wanted to keep them quiet.

The hosts were very helpful and they went out of their way to make sure my stay was comfortable. They even offered me something to eat on a Sunday when I arrived late and no restaurants were open. They also offered me a safe place to park my motorbike although their parking area was quite adequate.

I didn't speak french much so Google translate worked well both ways. Parking garage or off road parking for the motorcycle. Excellent clean room, balcony for smokers, great bathroom, mini bar, African themed room. Nice 10 minute walk through village to kebab bar or small restaurant. Great breakfast with home made jams.The 4 poster bed & decor made the room stand out.

We were traveling through France and we booked the Exotique room in this unknown (to us at least) village somewhere on the route. The owners greeted us heartily on arrival and despite our language barrier (Say Hi worked wonderful!) we managed well. Had an excellent breakfast (the home made marmalades were awesome!) and whatever we wanted, they could provide. If you're in town, also drop by the little shop in town selling items from all out of the region (La Vida Locale). Unfortunately, we didn't have enough time to walk around the towns to discover its rich history, but maybe next time we will. We'd like to thank the owners for their warm welcome and facilitating our stay at their place.

Very quirky with lovely decor. Very friendly and helpful hosts

We only had one towel initially but this was increased once we asked first more

People make the difference in any business and despite language barriers - unfortunately our French is very poor - the owners at this property made us feel very welcome and were extremely helpful. The property is located on the edge of a small village 20 kms south of Verdun. The rooms are individually furnished, spacious and are very comfortable. The breakfast was continental style accompanied by some very tasty home made jams. Yummy! For those with time on their hands this property is situated in a French nature reserve and it is well worth avoiding the motorway if you can, as the countryside around there is magnificent. So, thanks ver much, there was nothing not to like.

The privacy that we were given makes a nice change also the welcome we were given. And the breakfast was very good

The appearance when you arrives ain't the best but it looks like the people are trying to bring it up to speed a long way to go I think!
