Frank Sinatra did it ”My Way” and the charming ladies who own and run Villa Ambrosia have their own distinctive style in this funky but passionately unique B&B. The decoration and greenery suggest world travelers and folks that can't resist brocante shopping plus family heirlooms. Everything might not strike your fancy, but it all coalesces into a relaxing and whimsical whole built around a large indoor pool and enough plants and trees to compete with a botanical nursery. Our room, ”Shabby” was comfortable with a premium bed and a fine rainwater shower. A memorable breakfast is essential for any self-respecting B&B, and Villa Ambrosia scores well on this checklist. A very minor quibble: wished they used more substantial paper napkins, but everything else on the table was delightful. A caution, if you are arriving by car: Allee Ambrosia is at a sharp angle off the main road, quai de Lorraine. You and/or your GPS might miss it, and that can be annoying and stressful. There are a cluster of tiny public parking spaces outside their gate and room for only a few cars inside. It would be prudent to reserve same if you have a large car or visible luggage when the car trunk is too small. This place grew on us. You may not have all the ”mod cons” of a modern hotel (you might have to pull a cord out of a lamp socket to charge your laptop or phone), but you will be staying at a distinctive and singular hostelry that you will remember with fondness.
