Only down side is room doesn’t have air conditioning and you have to open the window. Overall is clean and well maintained, already came back to second time.

Very high quality for the price

It is a bit far away from the train station, but easy to get there using a city bike (1 €). Excellent clean rooms and facilities, lots of safe storage available for your stuff. There are even curtaibs for your privacy on the bed.

Fournaise

Déçue du très court passage dans l'hôtel dont je nai pas pu profiter de la chambre car la climatisation ne fonctionnait pas depuis plusieurs jours et pas réparée. Nous avons eu un petit ventilateur qui ne braissait que de l'air chaud. Il faisait plus de 30 degrés, ayant des problèmes respiratoires et suffocation dû a la chaleur. Nous avons dû quitter l'hôtel dans la précipitation dans profiter de notre chambre, sans remboursement ni geste commercial. Frais supplémentaires pour trouver un autre hébergement dans un autre établissement.

Nuit caniculaire

Séjour de une nuit pour une visite de bordeaux, hôtel bien mais le système de refroidissement d'air est inexistant, aucune aération. Il faisait plus chaud à l'intérieur qu'à l'extérieur. Je déconseille si les températures à Bordeaux dépassent les 30 degrès.
Jérémy, 1-night trip

Pour l'accueil & la situation

cette fois-ci, je n'ai pu dormir que 2 petites heures, trop de bruits trop longtemps des autres occupants du dortoir (8 lits), compliqué quand on est en transit pendant un long voyage (travail), heureusement, c'est largement compensé par l'accueil, l'amabilité et les bons conseils des réceptionnistes...

Ambiance agréable à vivre et pour le travail !

C’était super dans l’ensemble. Le personnel est accueillant et l’environnement est agréable. Petit bémol pas des moindres il n’y a pas de diffuseur de parfum ou même des produits senteurs dans les toilettes. Sachant que les chambres sont petites alors quand quelqu’un rentre au toilette l’odeur remplit la chambre. Et le lavabo également sentait mauvais au matin. Donc peut être mettre un petit produit à coté également pour le lavabo.

All events for promotion in the elevator was old, the area was loud at night with screaming people and cars and it was difficult to find a good place for dinner. BTW the bed and stuff around the room was good
