We booked the wrong dates and tried to change. Hotels.com staff couldn’t change the booking as no one at the hotel spoke English. We tried via email and never got a response, so asked our French Airbnb hosts to call, hotel refused to do anything over the phone and said they would reply to our email. Never heard from them.

Chambre avec odeur de cendrier !!! Horrible mes affaires puaient le tabac , il est Ă©vident que cette chambre a hĂ©berger un fumeur sur une longue durĂ©e imprĂ©gnĂ© dans les mur , les toilettes !! Atroce vraiment. MAIS Vraiment a vomir !!!! Évidemment rien n'a Ă©tĂ© fait pour essayer d'enlever l'odeur durant cette semaine !! Je suis chef d'entreprise! Des gens squattes le hall la nuit . Dorment sur des fauteuils avec des odeurs rĂ©pugnantes. Regard agressif car oui je partais Ă  5 heure travailler ! Et donc je les gĂȘnait... on marche sur la tĂȘte ! Vous ne pouvez pas ouvrir les fenĂȘtres le soir car il y a constamment des odeurs de cannabis . .. Je ne sais pas ce qui se passe dans cet hĂŽtel mais ç'est inadmissible. Je suis venu a plusieurs reprise depuis 2021 . Mais lĂ  je ne viendrai plus car ça a bien changĂ© !! Ils ont choisis leur clientĂšle apparemment.... La rĂ©ception vous envoies des sms avec une faute Ă  chaque mots .. pathĂ©tique . A fuir clairement !

A Ă©viter

Volet cassĂ©. TĂ©lĂ©vision en panne (aucune information Ă  ce sujet). Pas de climatisation donc obligĂ© d’ouvrir les fenĂȘtres car chaleur insupportable. Environnement trĂšs bruyant toute la nuit (cris, circulation, nĂ©on publicitaire), quartier peu rassurant. Lits inconfortables. Salle de bain vĂ©tuste et exiguĂ« (pas d’espace entre wc et lavabo, baignoire dont le fond n’est pas stable). Appliques non raccordĂ©es. Parking Ă  rĂ©gler en plus (5 euros). Deux sĂ©jours Ă©taient prĂ©vus initialement mais nous n’avons pas renouvelĂ© l’expĂ©rience alors que notre deuxiĂšme sĂ©jour Ă©tait dĂ©jĂ  rĂ©glĂ© (et non remboursable). Un mail a Ă©tĂ© envoyĂ© Ă  ce sujet Ă  Hotel.com mais aucune rĂ©ponse ni dĂ©dommagement.
