    "As a cheap overnight stay was very adequate." (107117935)

    Reasonable price, good location near all town facilities and tourist areas. Clean bedding etc. Good security with 3 secure doors to be passed before entering room.

    A little shabby round the edges e.g. mouldy grout in bathrooms, chipped paint in places.

    "very Good" (107802082)

    We have stayed at this Hotel a few times now, it is cheap and offers a good safe nights sleep. It is not top class, but if you want a value for money hotel with English TV. I would recomend, I would also take the breakfast for 5 euros per person its a bargain. The hotel is only 10 min from Euro Tunnel Ferry

    Basic hotel no frills

    "I wanted a room for the night and that is what I got. Quite, warm. Booking in was fine as I just handed in the on-line reservation confirmation form (after trying my poor French). I'll be back. Thanks!" (97153135)

    Very easy to find from the ferry port. Good location, local to restaraunts and handy for Cite Europe, quiet when the window was closed (and my room faced the station!). I was able to view UK TV and therefore get an idea of traffic conditions to decide my route home. The mattress was a little hard, but that suited me.

    The rooms are looking a little tatty. The sink in my room had more cracks than a Liverpudlian stand up comedian! however, everything (most important) was clean. I still can't work out why the toilet rolls are hidden under the sink, any first time visitor must get frustrated. Prices in the bar ensure I have what I need elsewhere. The showers are not for 'large' people.

    Value for money, good location with food and bars close by, very close to port and easy to get to with plenty of parking

    Room is small, but the price reflects that, the third bed is a bunk, as shown in the picture, however in our room the securing bolts to the wall had come loose! We put the mattress on the floor, the bed seemed to settle more than we would have liked.

    "I will be back." (108084178)

    Price; location; parking; lack of noise;

    Bar a little soulless. Long wait to check in due to customer wanting no end of information (not the hotel's fault of course). Rooms quite clean but not 100% so

The room was so bad that my girlfriend actually started crying at how horrible and disgusting the room was." (107227739)

    The Internet Booking was nice and simple and confirmation was clear. Check in was easy...

    The room was disgusting and there was mould on the sealing. The mattress was practically distorted in shape and I slept on an uphill angle all night. I could smell the people next door smoking. The website and email confirmation also told me there was free wireless internet, but I was charged 5Euro for this, which is very unfair.

    "Good value for money. Each room comfortably sleeps three as there is a bunk bed over the double bed. Very basic rooms eg. no bedside tables so you have to put your phone, glasses etc on the floor. However, it makes a good stopover close to the ferries and the breakfast is almost identical to those offered by other hotels at much higher prices. " (108093544)

    Convenient for ferry. Good value for money. Good breakfast.

    Very small shower - difficult to get in and out of it as the door opened on to the toilet! Close to main road - lots of noise from passers-by (generally very drunk!)

    "would definitely recommend for a one-night stopover if you only need a bed and shower to break your journey. staff helpful and friendly." (97970498)

    for the money it was very good. it served the purpose of a clean bedroom and shower for an overnight stay to break our journey from the eurotunnel to further into france for our holiday. it was also good to have someone at reception late at night when we arrived and we were able to enjoy a welcome nightcap before going to bed.

    no bad points really - it was exactly as described and what we expected.

    Central location, close to town centr restaurants etc. Not far from Tunnel/Ferries. Good buffet breakfast.

    Some noise from bar over the road; Rooms looking a little tired. A lick of paint and some maintainance on the fittings, particularly the loose tap in the bathroom, would brighten the place up.

    "We didn't expect the hotel to be particularly glamourous, and it's hard to describe it as such, but for the price we were very happy, and for an overnight stop it was very much ideal. Just a shame about the confusion over the payment at the start, which made us fairly suspicious initially." (97128504)

    The hotel was good value for money and was generally better than I expected in terms of room facilities. I was also pleased to have access to some English TV channels, though I expect this will soon come to an end due to the UK's decision to start making all of our channels digital-only! We liked the sense of local pride in the bar, which was dedicated to the local football team (we came to watch the team play as the main reason for our visit, so this added to the overall impact of our enjoyment). The barman was friendly and spoke good English, which was useful given our limited grasp of French. The location of the hotel was superb - much nearer to the station than we expected.

    The receptionist made life quite confusing for us, given that we spoke only limited French. She took more money from us than was stipulated on our receipt, and returned it to us when we queried the bill, which made the start of our visit fairly unsettling. The bar prices were quite high, but when compared to other local bars, the mark-up wasn't perhaps as unreasonable as you might expect, and I liked the Wilfort beer which I didn't see anywhere else on our trip. However, I could only really afford to drink one glass-full at those prices.
