Studio room in Caen

The room was spacious enough with a kitchen and decent sized bathroom. The major drawback is that the room was located across the street from the checkin area. Access is poorly lit (lights are on a timer). The staircase to my room is steep and difficult to manage with luggage. The staff is friendly and the area around the hotel is safe and quiet.

4/10 Fair

We arrived 19:30 and the door was closed. A note said to use the pin code we should have received by email, which we never did. I kept knocking and after some time a housekeeper living next door came out gave me a key and allowed us to enter. Parking was a nightmare. You have to park in a parking house 10-15 mins away. They have 8 rooms and ours was like stepping into the historic past, but not in a good way. The carpet was very stained so I kept my socks on. Everything is ooooold and run down. The hotel needs some love and renovation but dogs are allowed and it was fairly priced. Breakfast could fit 6 people at the time and was simple but fresh. All were seated around same table and people were chatting, the room is tiny. I would not stay here again but it was quite an experience.

Ok it was average but the staff that attended us on the first day don't Know Spanish or English, I have to use Google translate. Recommendation just a little knowledge on English or Spanish that are big language around the word. The place and location exelent. The room not good for allergic people. Over all deseant.

2/10 Poor

Literally the worst hotel either of us have ever stayed in. Absolutely atrocious. - We were given a room that wasn’t in the hotel; it was next door to the hotel and its door opened directly onto the street, which was noisy all night. It did not feel at all secure. - The en suite was tiny, filthy and smelled of urine. - The carpet was so dirty I was loath to walk on it without my shoes on. - Both the tv remote and the WIFI didn’t work (although these really were the least of the issues). - The beds were grubby. - The bathroom towels had been around the block far too many times. - The room experience wasn’t helped by the “surround sound” of other toilets being used in the rooms above. - The general state of repair of the room was appalling and filthy. Consequently it smelled dirty and generally unpleasant. We arrived late and were leaving early the next morning. Had this not been the case, we'd have refused to stay there and, as it is, I still managed to come away with several bites on my legs and back. It’s clear this is an inexpensive hotel. I don’t expect it to be beautiful, have a modern coffee machine or luxury toiletries. There is, however, never any excuse for a lack of basic hygiene and cleanliness and I do not expect to have to deal with the detritus of previous occupants or visit a pharmacy as a consequence of my stay. Awful.

A super-cute little hotel right on the edge of historic Caen. If Richard Curtis ever did a movie set in Normandy, you’d almost certainly end up bumping into Hugh Grant on the stairs here!

2/10 Poor

I travel extensively and Very seldom have I ever left a bad review. This Hotel is really a boarding house with the name Hotel attached. I will be attaching photos. It's dirty and much mold in the shower. The carpet is almost non existent and worn down similar to felt and was like walking on concrete. We kept our socks on all the time because of the scrunchy carpet. The room was cold and finally I was able to explain we needed a heater. The toilet often took a couple flushes to work. Not sure what that was about. There is No common area to use to chat with friends or other guests. Just a tiny landing as you came into the door that was often filled with dirty laundry bags. We had a friend there also but we had to meet in our room. The dining area was so small and the house keeper kept coming through with laundry holding bags over our heads. We attempted to find other lodging immediately after seeing the hotel and our room but we were in Caeñ for 5 nights with a friend but no place was available for that long of a stay. Warning: I would not bring my children here. I don't know who the owner is but an inspection is needed.
