Pleasant stay
Connecting rooms were small, but after having read many reviews, was expecting it. Very clean. Very helpful staff. My son's bed was uncomfortable to him. He said mattress was hard and bed was small, but the rest of us were comfortable. Elevator is tiny. Said would fit 4, but more like 2 or 1 with luggage. Close to train station, but don't walk it. All uphill. Overall a pleasant stay

I’ve stayed in hotels all over Europe and the room at this facility was dreadful. The bathroom was so small, you hit your knees on a radiator just trying to get inside, then the sink was in another room. Unless you’re a hobbit, don’t stay here.

We stayed here two nights while visiting D-Day Beaches. We had to pay extra to reserve a parking spot in their private off-street lot. We opted to find our own breakfast in a nearby cafe, which the reception was not too happy about. There is a great bar on the corner down the street, where we drank wine and talked lengthily with locals. Dining was about a half mile away on the river, where there are many restaurants to chose from.

Excellent place to stay
Very friendly and pleasant place to stay, although the immediate location isn't spectacular. They have the local French daily newspaper available at breakfast - a nice touch. The croissants are good as is the coffee. Think twice if you are large of girth as the lift is tiny! But apart from that we had no complaints. The hotel offers great value for money. The walk into the centre of Caen is about 20 minutes but that would be a quick taxi ride if you are lazy.

nice hotel and perfect for families
Perfect for families. Nice and approachable staff. As a family of 5 the rooms were the right size and we could access the room where we the kids were staying through an inside door what brought us some inner peace. The rooms were tidy and clean. As a part of a family I couldn't ask for more. Great experience.

Great value, worth the stay
booked this hotel in the middle of the night to replace a disappointing hotel so our expectations were minimal given the last minute nature but were pleasantly surprised upon our arrival. As soon as we got out of our car, we were greeted by Saif, the cutest, friendliest 'guard dog' by the back door on 'his' patio. He made no attempt to near us but immediately wagged his tail when we spoke to him. After playing with him & rubbing his tummy, we went inside only to be greeted again by John the owner. He was extremely helpful, spoke excellent English and quickly accommodated our request for a smoking room despite having us down as non-smoking. The smoking room he had available was outfitted as a single room (ie:pillows, towels etc) but corrected these issues before we got our luggage into the room. It was an older hotel, the decor, bedding etc were updated & bright. The room was small for Canadian standards but typical for Europe. Despite being a smoking room, you would never know it! It was fresh & spotless with no odour. The luscious duvet & quality of the towels were incredible. stayed for 2 nights, food was good & reasonably priced. Wifi adequate & tv incl. a few English stations. John was always helpful with directions etc & willing to address any concerns, we had none. reserved parking was always there when we returned & There were no surprises at check out. Would definitely stay here again!

one night during our europe trip
We pulled up at 10pmish to the hotel in a pretty "iffy" neighborhood with everything from crying kids in windows directly across the street and some guys fixing a car....10PM! That pretty much set the tone and sure enough the hotel was less than desirable to say the least. Dark hallways, narrow walls, etc and the room was no bigger than an average size master bathroom. A double bed hardly fit and the "sofa" pull out was strangely arranged in the corner with sheets jammed between the floor and wall no way I was letting my kids put their faces to these sheets. There was no way to get any sheets or extra blankets and the desk guy knew two words in English. We had to go get something to eat, and he did manage to let us know that if we came back after midnight we wouldn't be able to get in as he leaves and locks it all down at midnight. During our meal couple miles away I looked up a different hotel on the other side of town called Adagio and we no joke came back to this one got our stuff and left. Yes, it was $110 down the drain but I just did not see us sleeping here in any way.

A good base for exploring the Normandy Area
A decent hotel if you're spending a short period of time in town. The immediate area around the hotel is sparse, though the major tourist area (by William the Conqueror's castle) is about a 20-30min walk away. The hotel staff were very friendly and spoke good English. The hotel is also close to the train and Bus Verts terminal for those coming and going from Caen.

Basic but clean and friendly
The hotel is not luxurious and is a good 20 minute walk from the town centre - but that's why it is cheaper than some of the others! The staff were extremely pleasant and welcoming. The room was basic but clean and comfortable and breakfast was fine. We didn't eat in the hotel in the evening so can't comment on that. If you're looking for a hotel which is a base for looking round and don't mind a short walk or a bus ride into town then there's nothing to complain about. If you like to spend an appreciable amount of your waking time in your hotel room, or to be at the heart of city life, go elsewhere and pay more.

Great price, good location, EXCELLENT staff!
We only stayed here for two nights while we visited the area. Getting to the SNCF station was easy via the local bus system, also getting into the center of town is easy via bus. There didn't seem to be a lot of restaurant options nearby but there are a few and they were good and extremely friendly. There are also a couple of markets close to the hotel. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful, the room was in good condition and always clean. The room was very quiet at night. I would definitely recommend this hotel to anyone staying in the city, and the price was fantastic.

Acceptable for an overnight stay.
This is a very modestly-priced hotel and therefore acceptable for an overnight stay; the room was small, though clean. Likewise, the restaurant served rustic, but tasty food.

Free Wi-fi and parking lot. If you have a car and don't want to stay in downtown Caen, then this is a good place. It takes about 30 minutes to walk to the chateau which is in the city center. There are many great restaurants around the Vaugueux street just east of the chateau.

I really enjoyed my stay. The staff were friendly and very helpful. The room was basic enough but had all the modern convinences. Breakfast is included and is great. There is a bus stop outside the hotel which takes you directly to the main tain and bus station which is also within walking distance. A transfer ticket is only €1.25 and lasts up a hour.

the hotel location was right on a busy main road,,traffic could be heard all night,,,,, room too warm to shut the window or shutter''' chambermaid would insist on cleaning the room early while we were still in there,,,,, hotel restaurant was shut after only one night... hotel was closed with no reception staff for 2 days at certain hours,,,,,you had to let yourself in and out,,,,we thought this to be dangerous,,,,hotal was further from train station than we were lead to believe,,,,,

We stayed for 5 nights while golfing in the surrounding areas. Staff were very friendly and spoke good english. Rooms were small but adequate. Bathrooms were modern and very clean. Private parking was available. Location was a little out of the way but the chateau was only a 20 minute walk from the hotel. Overall we were satisfied with our stay and would consider the hotel for a future stay.
