The parking was good, the breakfast was excellent, everywhere was clean, the manager was helpful, the mattress was reasonably comfortable, there were no problems at all except possibly we couldn't find anywhere local to the hotel to have anything to eat, thank you
We stayed at five hotels, during a week, this was the best, cleanest of them all! the room was the smallest, but biggest comfy bed and it was so clean, we’d choose this above all others, a good choice, happy
Good value for money, clean,tidy and comfortable!!

Disliked: Staff & service, room comfort
Teeny tiny room
Possibly one of the smallest hotel rooms in France.
Parking was good and there's a supermarket and a few cafes close by.
My advice: if youre of normal stature, book somewhere else
Great little hotel.
Fantastic value for money.
Yes the rooms are small , but allowing for the price, and that on slept in the room , I'm 100% satisfied with my stay.
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.
Thank you to the very helpful staff. Rooms were nice and clean, parking very handy, food places and facilities very close during the week days, but closed during weekend.
Very pleasant welcome despite arriving at 2315. The room and shower room was compact but perfect for a one night stay. The bed itself was really comfortable and the whole place was really clean. For the amount of money paid you just can’t fault it. We would definitely stay again.
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.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
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.
