Creating a bed and breakfast is the ultimate French dream
Testimony of Séverine Devanne, hotelier at Le Petit Monty
I love staying in people’s homes, but I didn’t want to set up a simple Airbnb! People you meet and diversity of exchanges and homes, that’s what I like the most. In fact, for me, the best guest house is the one where you’re welcomed with care, and where you can feel that the host has made the effort to make the room or lodging as comfortable as possible for you….
