Lunch ok.. bed kraakte heel erg.. last van stampvoetende mensen boven ons. Top is de vriendelijkheid van de mensen en de ligging ten opzichte van het strand en de prijs.

Personnel au top pas les chambres

A 90 euros la nuit on s'attend au moins a ce que ce soit mieux qu'un formule 1 sauf que ce nest pas le cas ! La propreté est là, le personnel tres sympathique , j'espère qu'ils sont bien payés a ce prix la chambre car ils doivent se prendre pas mal de reflexions et essaient toujours d'arranger mais les problèmes sont ailleurs ! C'est une auberge de jeunesse et non un hotel ! Vous vous asseyez sur le lit il crie au secours, la douche est grande mais le jet lol c'est une blague mm en caravane cela coule mieux ..... soit maintenant on sait ..

6/10 Good

Personnel is really good and willing to deliver a great service. The problem is the hotel itself. It was and old hospital. It’s kind of creepy when you walk through the aisles and see the floor with the yellow lines, the doors, floors, walls and toilettes of a hospital or nursing home

La douche et le wc fuites et coulent jours et nuits. Pas de Wi-Fi ?? Pas de restaurant ?? Le restaurant est fermée et le WiFi est fermée volontairement par la direction ??
Pedro, 3-night trip

6/10 Good

La salle de bain etait très insatisfaisante : la chasse du wc était très difficile à activer, il fallait s’y reprendre à plusieurs reprises vu le débit d’eau insuffisant et le bouton très dur à pousser ; le distributeur de papier toilette etait vide, il y avait un paquet de papier sur l’étagère de l’évier située à 1,5m du pot ; aucun endroit pour poser ses affaires de toilette, juste une petite étagère minuscule ; le support du pommeau de douche etait cassé, impossible de prendre une douche sans tenir soi même le pommeau ; l’évacuation de l’eau de la douche n’était pas suffisante, un balai était présent dans la douche pour racler mais même en faisant des pauses pour racler, l’eau s’échappait dans la pièce, mouillant complètement la serviette tapis de bain pour les pieds… sinon le petit déjeuner américain proposé à 10€ était très simple sans plus, l’œuf sur le plat n’était pas cuit, pas suffisant… le personnel était par contre très poli et sympathique.

Séjour Escale Dunkerque

Accueil par le personnel satisfaisant, la chambre n'était pas prête à 17h, mauvaise surprise que l'on n'ai pas pû prendre une douche avant de se coucher, ni au réveil du fait d'un dysfonctionnement de l'arrivée d'eau. Pour avoir réglé 88€ la nuitée, je suis extrêmement déçue. Mise à part ce désagrément, l'accueil et le service du petit-déjeuner ont été satisfaisants.
