Overnight before catching the early ferry

Overnight stay before the ferry home early next morning, so was unable to have breakfast. The hotel reception and rooms have been refurbished since our previous visit two years, which has made a big improvement, the corridors are still the same, but the main areas had been addressed.

The hotel offers parking in the back of the building, which is a real plus. It's walking distance to shopping district, cafes and more. It offers a great base for discovering Normandy beach history. Friendly staff, clean rooms, pleasant enough.

We were put on the 4th floor with a broken elevator. The staff did not even offer help with our suitcases. We couldn't even find a bottle of water in the rooms that were just small. The hotel needs new mattresses, sheets and pillows as soon as possible. I can't recommend this place.

Lovely place

Lovely room and easy walking distance from the train station (15 min.) Lots of restaurants in the area, including a FABULOUS Indian place about 8 min away. The only thing we weren’t thrilled with was the pillows on the bed. They were very lumpy and uncomfortable. I ended up folding the extra blanket up to use as a pillow.
