Basic but does the job
We used the hotel for the Angouleme comics festival. With accommodations always difficult to get for that time of year, I think it worked out (especially since there was a shuttle for guests who had professional badges for the show this year 2024 ). However, there was definitely some culture shock for those used to US hotel accommodations. For instance lack of staff during check-in time (it’s done with an atm-style machine on the outside of the building, you get a code to use to enter the exterior door and your room door). We arrived a little early and luckily the cleaning staff let us put our baggage I our room (which was not ready yet). So don’t count on leaving luggage if you don’t have room access. Also, the hallway and bathroom had a mildew smell. The room was clean though. The bathroom was very small and so was the shower. There luckily is a bus route to take you to the town center near the hotel which is great, but the bus does not run on Sundays. So I’d recommend it if you need a place to stay in the area during a busy festival when it’s hard to find places, but be aware it doesn’t have the usual hotel services.
