During breakfady, the front desk person kept hackingninto his hands and proceeded to touch buffet food. Rooms are standard not luxurious but okay for a night or two.
Arrived late. The guy at reception was very good. Room was very small and basic but met our requirements and was conmendably clean. Comfortable bed, nice shower. Didn't use any other services, so can't comment, but there's a nice Super U with cafe right next door, where we loaded up for our ongoing trip. Left early after a restful night. Quiet area.
Easy to find and easily accessible by car.. check in was simple and easy... lovely lady behind the desk..
The room wasn't anything less than I expected as I have used this hotel chain before...
Very basic but very functional..
Double bed.. very comfortable..
Shower and toilet facilities.. shower gel and towels provided..
Ideal for me as a solo traveller just looking for an oversight rest stop ..
All i need is a clean room,. comfortable bed and hot shower..
And this provides just this..
And for the price it's great value for money..
Free onsite parking..
The hotel is situated right next to a supermarket and other facilities nearby so great location if you want to eat out or stock up for the journey ahead..
Personally didn't opt for breakfast but a continental breakfast is on offer and looked really nice if you would prefer to
Good stay . Damp smell in corridor. However didn’t effect the stay. Noisy air con (heating unit) not much choice for breakfast wouldn’t bother next time. However overall good stay.
Stinky hallways, mold in the room, and broken toilet seat. The place didn't feel very clean. We are not the picky kind, and stayed in multiple hotels in the past months and this is our lowest quality one. A little too spartan for us. But their staff is nice. Other advantage: next to a nice supermarket.
Arrived 11pm so just needed a bed - and that was practically what the room contained but that was not a problem as we set off early the next day. Bed was really comfortable.
This is a budget hotel. The rooms are small but our bed was comfortable. There is just enough room in the en suite bathroom. The towels are too small but additional ones are available. The hotel offers breakfast if ordered the day before but the adjacent hypermarket does too, except Sundays, with more choice and more space. Restaurent Le Tablier, 10 mins walk away, was good for dinner. City centre is a 15 minute drive away.

The receptionist was helpful. The room was clean also the bathroom. The double bed mattress was actually two single mattresses meeting in the middel Not what I expected,
The bnotedroom- the space between the side walls and bed was very narrow one had to walk sideways. not good.It was however very cheap and good value.
The hotel was easy to access on the outskirts of Caen, it was reasonably priced. The rooms were small (esp. the bathroom) but clean and sufficient. There was a simple buffet breakfast available and a supermarket nearby.
