Hotel La Bastide Saint Martin

We had a very nice stay for two nights. The location is perfect, 10 minutes from the busy, touristic city of Carcassonne. It’s a peaceful place to return to after a long day of walking and viewing. One problem was that there is no fan in the bathroom, so a shower steams up the entire room, but you can’t open the window unless you want tons of bugs to fly in. There are no screens on the windows. As a result, our towels and bathing suits never dried and everything got kind of moist. We had a towel dryer in our room that didn’t work. The showers themselves are very nice with high water pressure. It’s the first place we have had to pay for a crib in the room for our baby and the breakfast was very expensive, so we didn’t do it. The pool is very nice, but you have to pay extra for a towel.

Loved the entire experience: 1. Small, quaint property. 2. Owners on property. 3. Room comfortable 4. Quiet, peaceful hotel. 5. Staff (owners) went out of their way to assist us with recommending a Covid testing location and assisted us all the way through. The were more than managers, they behaved as lovely with us, as if they were family. I wish all hotels were like this. 6. I would highly recommend.
