Au Cachalot Caché le gîte hôtel

We were excited to stay here. The photos looked so nice. And they were legit photos. That’s what the rooms look like. The room was spacious and gorgeous. But the feel of the place doesn’t match the look, largely because the hosts of this BnB seem to think of you as a danger to their property more than as a guest. No shoes either in the common area where breakfast is served or IN YOU OWN ROOM. No putting your bag on the bed. No putting it on the table either. Put it in the special place they picked for your bag. You got the feeling they had just taken 1970’s style plastic covers off the furniture and were regretting it. There is a full kitchen in the room, but no cooking is allowed. The breakfast was bread with bread with bread (pancakes or french toast and baguette and croissant) with small portions of jam or cheese, pate, and creton to be shared by 5 or 6 people. Heaven help anyone with gluten issues (like Kim). And in Quebec, home of the strategic reserve of the stuff, it is hard to understand why we got a look when we asked for maple syrup with our french toast. And you can’t pay even with debit. It has to be cash. Which for three nights is a fair bundle of bills to take from the only bank machine in town. Overall, the stay is spoiled by the feeling that you are imposing. Which is a pity, since the pictures do accurately show a very nice LOOKING place.

Truly enjoyed our stay at this new B&B. Our room was clean that included a comfortable bed and huge shower. Loved being able to sit outside and watch the stars at night. Was able to ditch the car and walk to centre ville for dinner. Breakfast was very tasty including the cappuccino. Thank you Bruno and Guylaine for your hospitality. Would definitely stay again.
