La MaiZon

Our hosts Francoize and Damian were very welcoming. We had the apartment for 10 days as it was our base for the region. On arrival we were a bit surprised with the state of the garden lounges and chairs as we walked to our apartment. The outdoor pillows were dirty and the chair near our apartment littered with leaves and dust. It was never cleaned during our entire stay. On entering the apartment it was particularly dark in the kitchen living area. The kitchen was not well stocked with utensils or crockery …. 3 very small old wine glasses, 3-4 plates, 2 bowls and an odd collection of a few drinking glasses. We had to ask for a bread knife and there were no salad servers. There was not one sharp knife to cut cheese effectively. The oven door had a cobweb in between the glass and the oven tray was splattered with oil. Definitely not conducive to any major cooking. The couch in the living area was extremely uncomfortable. Not even a comfortable chair to sit on! Upstairs the bedroom was large and more comfortable yet there was no light in the shower and no hooks to hang used towels. The toilet door squeaked so that if you got up in the middle of the night you would wake your partner. The airconditioning in the bedroom was good and the cool air managed to filter to the downstairs area. We had two lovely evening meals which Francoize prepared yet we had to avoid the mosquitos, which were everywhere in the garden and outdoor area. The whole place could do with a cleanup, scrubbing of cushion on lounges and chairs and a good replenishment of utensils, crockery and equipment in the apartment. The family was very pleasant but on our departure there was no “thank you for staying with us” ….. just Au Revoir.

I highly recommend staying at LA MaiZon! Françoise is the most welcoming and supportive host! The location is perfect, offering a peaceful and calm atmosphere at night, allowing for a truly relaxing experience during the day away from the city. Additionally, the property is conveniently located near numerous regional attractions. The breakfasts provided were outstanding. Overall, a fantastic stay!
