Short stay in La Rochelle

Good night stay in this hotel close to the action. Older place with nice staff, good breakfast for 10 euros. The mattress was not very comfortable and the wifi accessible only in the common places. Reasonable price, was really ok.

Bonne situation, et personnel attentionné

L’emplacement de cet hôtel est idéal pour les courts séjours. Le personnel de jour et de nuit est prévenant. Cependant, il semble préférable de réserver directement auprès de l’hôtel et non via la plateforme ‘hôtels’ qui ne met pas à jour les disponibilités. Le personnel en sera davantage gratifié, vous aurez plus de chances d’être logés dans la partie la plus récente de l’établissement, et vos souhaits initiaux seront alors honorés sans mauvaise surprise, notamment si vous sélectionnez les chambres twin qui y sont rares.

Smale senger og ingen aircondition!

Hotellet lå sentralt, men usedvanlig dårlig standard og slitent hotell. Ingen aircondition og svært smale senger.

Hotel was in a perfect location for central La Rochelle. Room was suitable for what we needed. Hotel front and rooms were dated and in need of some TLC although good value for money and just a base so no issues.
