Among the various aspects of Chez Gus, the breakfast experience appears quite polarized. Some guests appreciated the simplicity and found the self-service breakfast sufficiently varied, complete with seasonal fruits and an extensive selection. The breakfast hut situated in the bucolic garden was also a delightful touch for some.
However, many others expressed dissatisfaction, citing issues such as a lack of quality and care, minimalistic and limited options and even moldy fruits and unappealing leftovers. The absence of basics like fresh bakery bread, milk for children and savory options further contributed to the negative feedback. Several reviews mentioned that the kitchen was not maintained well with outdated appliances like a faulty kettle and an old coffee maker.

Chez Gus offers a mixed experience when it comes to their beds. Many guests appreciated the comfort of the beds with several reviews highlighting the beds as very comfortable and spacious. There are positive notes about good heating and the coziness of the beds with one mentioning the bed being comfortably spacious and another pointing out that it was a hard mattress but big and cozy.
However, guests noted some issues that could use attention. It's mentioned that some beds seemed old and in need of replacement with problems such as rolling towards each other and making noise. There were also remarks about the bedding not being ironed and sometimes smelling unpleasant or even appearing as if it was from a previous guest. Hair in the bed and a lack of mattress protection were concerns as well.
The bedding size was another point of contention with one review mentioning that a 1.40m bed felt narrow for a couple.

The communal kitchen, in particular, seemed to disappoint many, described by some as downright filthy and neglected. Guests have recommended a comprehensive refresh and thorough cleaning, especially in shared spaces like the kitchen and garden area.
