Nous sommes arrivés dans la soirée alors que la réception était fermée. Nos clefs avaient été déposées dans une boite aux lettres et avons donc pu facilement accéder à notre chambre. Blackwater étant situé dans une région minière, elle accueille beaucoup d'ouvriers/mineurs et est donc placée à proximité d'installations nécessaires à l'exploitation dont... des chemins de fer. Nous avons entendus des trains durant toute notre courte nuit. La chambre étant par contre relativement propre et bien équipée avec un grand frigo, une tv, une salle de bain avec toilette séparée. Nous avons le sentiment d'avoir payé plus que nécessaire pour cet établissement. Bien à vous ##### Antoine ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 20 May 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Friendly welcome Comfortable room with everything needed.
