Of all the inexpensive hotels we stayed at on our travels, this one was an unexpected joy. Small but very clean room, helpful and friendly check in. We came during an extended heatwave and a brand new oscillating fan was provided (without having to ask). Like most places in France, they is no AC (why?!), and the fan was very much appreciated!

No elevator (also a common experience across France) so be ready to climb stairs.

Parking in the Cathedral parking garage is super close.

Our room faced the cathedral so we did not experience the \"hooligans\" in the park mentioned by other reviewers.

If your TV will not open Netflix or YouTube, you may have to sign in to the wifi first ;).

Walkable to many useful places like restaurants, pharmacies, and a cinema

Would stay here again.

I had a single room as my wife cancelled. Walls very thin, could hear the snorer next door lucky I had ear plugs. Has a kettle, window opened fully and room faced the cathedral so was too much traffic noise. Good basic room and fine breakfast for price. Maybe the single room should be cheaper.

Do not stay here

We have stayed in a lot of Hotels in many countries but this was our worst ever experience. We booked a room with a refrigerator as this was a requirement of our booking and when we got to our room, no fridge, the noise from the roadworks was very bad ( no fault of the hotel) so I asked for a quiter room with a fridge, I was told that the rooms didnt have fridges and there were no better rooms even though we were at the end near the roadworks. I was later informed by another staff member at checkout that this person had lied to us and some rooms did have fridges.
In addition to this, when I checked my credit card statement 2 days later, I discovered that they had illegally deducted another $297 from my credit card. It has taken a week to get this money back and there excuse was that they had charged someone elses room to my card, there explanation for how this happened was not feasable and their reaction to our complaint has been disgusting. We have now been charged 2 foreign transaction conversion fees for these transactions which we will have to pay. The hotel has offered to refund these if we give them our bank account details which we would never trust them with. If you do stay here, make sure you check your bank statements after leaving because if I had not done that, we would be $297 out of pocket.

Very much a budget hotel.

Ideal for students but anyone over 25 forget it. I was on the top floor & at 53 I struggled with all of the stairs. Didn't get a wink of sleep as other residents were very noisy well into the night & didn't give a toss about anyone else. Paper thin walls meant I heard every time they went to the toilet or showered. (Made my pipework rattle) . slamming doors also a pain. No noise from outside all from inside. True you get what you pay for !

Being in our 60's we found going up to room with case very difficult. Was quite noisy until the early hours but this was expected in a central location.

I was disappointed that I was promised breakfast with our reservation and then charged 12 euros each . This hotel needs a lift, an elevator to the 4th floor. The desk staff speak English and are moderately helpful. They directed us to the old market for restaurants. Great fish restaurant across square. Good shopping & access to river & major sites. Take a taxi from train station _ it 's inexpensive and a lot easier than the metro or tram.

Usual Terrible French Service, but great location!

The first day the receptionist was very rude and I almost changed hotel just because of his unfriendly welcome. He acted like he didn't know any English seeing that I speak terrible French. Somehow, by the last day the same receptionist suddenly became very friendly and and miraculously remembered his English, He even didn't charge us for breakfast. He must have overheard me tell my cousin that I was going to give the hotel a terrible review! The hotel does not deserve to be part of an American \"Comfort Inn\" Chain! But the price is OK and the location is great! Because of that I do recommend this hotel, just don't expect good service and use it only to sleep.

Le voyage étant en Mars, la chambre était plutôt fraîche et humide, surtout la salle de bains qui semblait avoir été repeinte récemment. Quelques moisissures étaient revenues dans la douche, dès que je l'ai signalé, le nettoyage a été fait. On sent que les salariés de l'hôtel font très attention à la propreté des chambres et sont à l'écoute des demandes des clients.
