Dinan stay
Quirky and unusual property,perfectly situated for enjoying Dinan. Having the parking close by is a a real bonus. We thought the church bells might be a problem but quite the opposite. We will miss them!!

In the heart of the old town
The apartment is situated in the very heart of the old town of Dinan and has reserved parking just a stone's throw away. It is possible to park outside the apartment for the few minutes it takes to unload your luggage but finding out how to get there can be a bit problematical due to some streets being randomly closed. It is best to approach things from the Port Dinan side of the old town. Olga, who handled the check in was charming and very helpful, though you will need reasonable French to get the best of things. The apartment is in a very old building and comes with the quirks one would expect but that adds to the charm. It is comfortable for two couples and has all the amenities one needs. Dinan itself did not disappoint with plenty to see and do, not just in the old town (which is beautiful) but also Port Dinan and the wider town itself.

Atmospheric apartment in a great location
The apartment has lots of character and is very comfortable. Great location on one of the squares. Everything is close. Some reviews said it was noisy but we found it very quiet. Slept in the bedroom facing the square and were not disturbed at all by street noise or the church bells. Olga tries hard to communicate if you don’t speak French. It’s a pantomime but we got there! Parking is convenient provided the parking pass is available. The common areas (entrance and stairwell) are quite grimy but the apartment is clean. Stairs are uneven and steep - no problem for us but would not be suitable if you have mobility or balance issues. Overall we very much enjoyed our stay and would stay again if back in town.

A lovely old building in a pretty square, near to good cafes and the tourist sites of Dinan. There is a little balcony which catches the sun, comfortable furniture and good facilities. The wifi was good once I had rebooted it and input the password without the spaces shown on the card.

Atmospheric
The third floor property is well located in a square in the heart of Dinan and has the bonus of a parking space in a nearby underground car park. The square was lively in the evening and the bells tolled in the adjoining church but overall nights were quiet and we slept really well in the comfortable beds. The flat was well equipped and we didn't want for anything. It was easy to access Dinan by foot and there were plenty of places to buy food and a larger supermarket was an easy drive away. The property manager was helpful and informative.

Lots of Unnecessary Problems
This is a delightful and quirky apartment ideally placed in Dinan. Physically, it is well appointed; the owner even provided an additional reading lamp at our request. The creaking, sloping floors were not a problem, nor were bells from the adjacent church or the remote parking. All were expected and added to the unique charisma of the apartment. Unfortunately, when we arrived, the apartment was not clean. Bed linens and towels were satisfactory, as far as we could tell, but the bathroom, kitchen and floors generally needed attention. We purchased cleaning supplies and used them in the bathroom and kitchen. We feel completely justified in claiming we left the place cleaner than we found it. The WiFi didn't work, despite several days of trying different approaches to connect. Over the course of several phone conversations the owner maintained that there was something wrong with our iPhones and suggested we go to the Orange Store in town for help. The store tested the phones and ascertained our phones were fine. The store said the box in the apartment was probably not working right, but that the owner would have to bring it in. The owner was out of town. The TV did not work when we arrived. The hostess (not the owner) who met us worked with someone over the phone for ~30 minutes to get reception. Unfortunately, we never found any stations with english programming (as promised in the listing), or even english subtitles. Overall, physically this is a charming rental, but needs better management.

Really Fun Apartment
The apartment is really unique, the location is fabulous. It would be much easier to check in without having to meet someone, especially since that person didn't speak any English. We had a mechanical issue with the apartment during our stay and the owner fixed it in a very appropriate time frame and communication was good regarding the issue.

Cozy and comfortable, a terrific location in a lovely village.
We enjoyed our stay in this quaint apartment. As others note, there are stairs to access the apartment, and the floors are quite slanted. All of this adds to the charm of an apartment that has experienced much of history. We were greeted by Olga upon our arrival, and she was very helpful, showing us around the apartment, and best of all, riding with us to the parking garage and walking with us back to the apartment, and giving suggestions on local restaurants. We loved the location! Adjacent to the beautiful cathedral, and on a quiet square. We had easy walks to nearby restaurants and shops. We slept quite comfortably in the front bedroom. Shower was fine, water nice & hot! Also nice to have dishwasher, clothes washer, and hair dryer. We ate out most of the time, but the kitchen was fine for our simple breakfasts and snacks. We found it convenient for day trips to Cancale, Fort la Latte, Cap Frehel, Vannes, Josselin, Vitre, and Fougeres. We would recommend this apartment for those wishing to experience the lovely and historic village of Dinan, and all that the region has to offer.
