Disappointing
Change of ownership seems to have reduced the quality of service. The hob and pans would not work as they had not been cleaned properly to work with induction. The hairdryer had been removed from the bathroom - had to go to reception to request a loan and told to return to reception. Breakfast was a very poor offering - no fresh baguettes, only over cooked petit pain etc etc. Toaster, but no sliced bread - very disappointing. Lots of money spent on decor, but at a cost to the quality of the experience.

Very expensive for what you get. Very little staffing onsite to assist. Breakfast isn’t worth the money. Room was okay but two singles plus double beda sofa bed was not the most comfortable for a family of 4. Public transport is 20 minute walk away. Supermarket and bar less than 10 minutes by car.

The “disabled accessible” bathroom wasn’t really that accessible. The shower was over the bath! But there was a grab rail by the toilet. The room was mainly clean and the beds were comfortable. The kitchen had a bad smell probably from a blocked drain and the walls and sofa bed were grubby. It was good to have free parking and the use of a kitchenette. Also good to have the on-site bar.

The hotel was a great stay, very pleasant . The only let down was the breakfast. It was awful and not worth the money at all. Would stay again but eat out

Nice hotel for a stopover. The rooms were very clean and having the studio with a kitchenette and living area was brilliant. Staff were very friendly and the bed was extremely comfortable. The only suggestion for improvement is that they have a bit more choice in their in-hotel shop, rather than just a vending machine. It wasn't a huge issue, though, as there is a supermarket 5 min drive away.

This hotel has kitchen/cooking facilities, separate lounge, bedroom and is superb all round value. You may have to ask for utensils. We have stayed numerous times, but on the last two occasions we have had to ask for a saucepan and large servicing dishes which were made available as soon as requested. The buffet breakfast is fantastic not to be missed

Less than perfect stay.
I don’t expect to be shouted out by staff for not eating my breakfast from a tray, totally unacceptable. Also had the misfortune of being given a room on the ground floor, where the lights from the foyer shone in all night and we were woken by what sounded like trolleys being wheeled past at 6am ish, for what I’m assuming was preparations for breakfast. The table football machine was right outside our door and was extremely noisy with people playing on it till after 11pm. We have stayed in this hotel on at least four previous occasions and always had a pleasant stay. If this had been our first experience, we would never have returned, as it is I would have to check in advance the location of the room I was being allocated before taking the risk of staying again.

The hotel was fine, but the location is in the middle of nowhere. I should have checked street view. If we didn't have a car we'd have had disappointed with our location in Lille. Instead it served as a good base to explore other places like Arras.

We stay here very regularly in the past 7 years. It is so good that we never look elsewhere. This time we have an apartment with two double bedrooms and a sofa bed ready made for our family of six. There is a kitchen with an electric hop and a microwave, but no oven. All cookery are supplied including washing up liquid. We shopped at the nearby Auchan at the Centre Commercial for oyster, escargot, paella and bubbly drinks to cook back in the hotel. Though the hotel does sell ready cook meals if one fancies a lay in. Breakfast buffet is a highlight, not an English breakfast, but does have pancakes and scramble eggs. Croissant and pain au chocolat are tasty accompanied with 10 different selection of jams and nutella, really spoiled for choice. My children had a good time as usual and so the stay was relaxing. The hotel is in a Science park, so nice and quiet in the evening and plenty of paths for morning jog around. To get to Lille centre ville, we recommend parking the car free at Centre Commercial at Villeneuve d'ascq and take the metro to Rihour for about €3.50 return. Hassle free 9 quick stops and there are lifts to the platforms if you have a pram.

Very nice apartment hotel. We love the room that is fully sound insulated. Good size living room, dinning area, kitchen, and bedroom. Kitchen is nicely equipped with utensils, stoves, and microwave oven. The living area was very confortable, and the dinning area is nicely decorated for you. The bedroom was spacious and we had a good night sleep. We were also surprised by how nice the breakfast is. We’ve got yhe room last minute with discount. Everything in the apartment exceeded our expectations. We look forward to come back with our family and plan to book with a much bigger room for 6!

One night budget hotel
First of all, décor needs updating through out. It felt like stepping into a prison hall. The door room numbers were so big that you could read them a mile a away. The colour scheme was horrible- dark and gloomy albeit the sunlight was great in the hall. Room natural lighting was limited and room lights were dim. Wall colouring in room was bright orange. Toilet did not have airing system. Public hallway used for eveining events (small bar) cause lots of noise to enter room. Bathroom dated. On the good side, matress and pillows were fantastic. TV channels great. Breakfast was mediocre. Food range was good but felt like back to school canteen. Hot water for tea was NOT hot. Location was great but will consider other options next time. Below standard for the budget price paid. Please update paint colour scheme.

A very pleasant surprise.
Clean and modern. The building kinda reminds me of a fancy students' dormitory. There's a very open feel to it but once you're in your room, it becomes your private oasis.
