Staying at the Hotel Marie Celeste
I arrived at 7.30 pm after a long drive from the South of France to find the hotel locked up with nobody there at all. The bar and restaurant were both closed as well. There was a handwritten note on the door giving a telephone number. I phoned and was told that there was a side door and I was given a digicode to gain entry and a room number for me. The room had a key in the door and I was the sole occupant of the hotel. The room was a good size and felt warm. On closer inspection, the room was rather dirty with cobwebs in all corners of the room and bathroom. The decor was shabby and the bed coverlet was stained. I was apprehensive about looking underneath the cover, but the sheets were clean cotton and the bed though soft was comfortable. Having looked around the village and finding nowhere open to get anything to eat, I retired to my room at 9.00pm and thought I would watch a bit of TV before going to bed. Unfortunately, the TV did not work as it was not receiving a signal. There were no instructions to help me to get it going, so I went to bed. I slept well showered in the dingy bathroom and left to go to Calais for my ferry to the UK. I often do this overnight stop on my way to and fro France and like to use different hotels every time. I have never stayed here before and will not stay again.
