Liked: Cleanliness
Disliked: Amenities
Hotel is really quaint and done within several very old buildings - as best as possible. Decent accommodations, with the givens of walking up and down numerous stairs, dark hallways, etc. Personnel there ranges from: exceptionally sweet young woman - who carried our heavy suitcases up two steep stairs (no elevator) - to a very unfriendly male. Requests like - making a call on our behalf to a beauty salon - were met with dismay (by the male). The breakfast area could be easily mistaken for a US Best Western hotel. Impersonal. Food as well. The only thing - that was really cool - was the giant mural with the Rabelais character - Gargantua (the gourmand). All in all it is an OK place with strategic location within the downtown.

It was hard to find the Hotel and even staff who worked near the Hotel didn't know where it was situated. You need better signs on the street to show the entrance.

great location in the heart of the old town just under the chateaux. Close to bars and restaurants. The room we stayed in had windows out onto a corridor which was rather strange but as we were only staying for 1 night it was acceptable
