    It would have been nice to have a little kettle in the room.

    Room simple but clean. Good value for money.

    Noise from traffic outside. The reception staff had to clear breakfast as well as be on the reception which was too much for one person. You rang the bell to get in and they were too busy in the kitchen to hear you. Had to wait outside until a guest let us in. No drop off outside on a main road so beeped at when loading car.

    I was not expecting much for a 2 star at such a cheap price but it was excellent and fitted our needs very well. Room was ok size and you could move the beds. Bathroom had bath and towels were good. Excellent location next to old city wall. Breakfast was 9 euros and was very nice. Good choice and quality products.

    The WiFi only works in the lobby. We travel without internet and rely on WiFi for communication. This aspect was disappointing. Limited eateries close to hotel, but plenty in town

    Property is old but refurbished and is spotlessly clean. Very close to the train station but a 20 minute walk, including 350 steps up into town. A bus passes outside the hotel up to town. Staff are very obliging but have very little English language which does make for some difficulty for english speakers as we are.

    The location: close to the station and steps up to the old town (lots of steps, which was totally fine for me, but someone who struggles with mobility might find them a challenge) The staff were welcoming and helpful. The room was basic, but perfectly adequate and great value for money!

    If you’re coming in hot weather, be aware it doesn’t have AC. There was a desk fan in the room and it’s possible to open the window. It wasn’t very hot when we were there but got quite stuffy in the room.

    Staff were friendly and helpful. It’s close to the train station and car hire places. Short walk up the steps to the city centre. Room was clean and comfortable enough.

    Great place to stay just across from the train station. Quiet room, comfortable and clean.

    The breakfast was disappointing for 9 euro per person. Some toast, a few pastries and some slices of meat and cheese on a plate in the fridge didn’t seem to justify the cost. If you need to get 9 euro from breakfast, I would include it in the cost of the room and then make breakfast “complementary”.

    The room was clean, modern, quiet and comfortable. The location was perfect for getting to the station early in the morning as well as being able to walk up to the center of Poitiers for dinner the night before.

    They except dogs but NOT dog friendly . No area to walk plus a € 10 charge for each dog even a hand bag dog that could not walk . Charges for parking and hard to get to and from hotel with suit cases . Better places local . If you have dogs and are old look else where .all in all a very expensive stay

    The buffet breakfast is reasonable value, but we got down quite late and there wasn't much choice left.

    The hotel is very well located for visiting Poitiers, right opposite the station and on a main route through town. There is cheap parking just across the road at Parking Tournai. Although it's just outside the old city walls, you can walk to the centre in about 20 minutes. It is a budget hotel, so don't expect large luxurious rooms, but its good value and very comfortable with clean minimalist rooms, our room was very quiet and we got a good night's sleep which is the most important thing.
