Guided tour of the Karly Hindu temple in Saint Pierre
"Very clean, modern and comfortable space close to the airport. Not particularly charming, but a good place to spend a night. Really lousy wifi and parking situation and poor breakfast/food options. But very good value. Staff are very hands off."
