Hôtel LIGO by HappyCulture
We (two middle aged women) stayed one night to break a journey, so we weren't looking for shops. The hotel really worked for us in terms of vicinity to the station and the seafront, where we had a stroll. The room was very nice. Breakfast was lovely and generous for the price.
