Stopped off while cycling the Raid Pyrenean , coast to coast (only about 10km off the route, near the Fabio Casartelli memorial). They have a secure lock up garage for the bikes, plenty of room there too, there were a couple of motorbikes in it too, so it also seems popular for those softies who need a motor. I came back later for a week with my girlfriend, used it as a base for getting around the pyrenees, not too far from Andorra. Rooms with a shower are about 33 euros a night, the interior is a classic old french hotel, wallpaper is very seventies, but they said they were about to redecorate as they only got the place this year (2005). A bit noisy on Saturday morning if you're looking for a lie in, but it's only the weekly market setting up in the town market place, live trout, kittens, all the usual for a French rural market.
My french is really bad, but luckily the owners both speak good english, even though she's a scouser. The cats a nutter, it undid my shoelaces while i was eating breakfast.
Good location, friendly people, cheap and nice town, worth a visit.
