I've stayed there before, which is why I stayed again. Good food, and great host company. Perfect spot for a stayover. Real nice French hospitality.

“A great homestay in a quiet and peaceful village with a warm and welcoming host.”
A quiet countryside location in a small village not far from Vendome and the main roads heading south through France. It is a homestay so you are in the hosts house, which made it a much more enjoyable and personal experience. If that's not your thing, probably best to look elsewhere. The bathroom is shared, but very clean. The bedrooms are comfortable and clean and it is excellent value for money. If you are looking for a hotel type stay this is not it. There is no TV in your room, no mini bar, complimentary toiletries or any of that. It helps if you speak some French and are respectful of the fact that this is the host's home. Breakfast and Dinner are available, message before staying to request this and you will get a lovely home cooked meal. The host is a delightful lady, warm, hospitable with a great sense of humour! The first thing I was asked when I arrived was would I like a cold beer! I loved it and stayed again on my homeward journey. Much more than an overnight stop, this was a proper taste of French hospitality and culture.
