Good but consider rooms not at the front

Great little hotel just a stones throw away from the old town and central district. We had great clean rooms obviously recently decorated and very comfortable. good secure parking for our cars. Only problem was Tuesday night as there was a busy and noisy bar close to the rooms on the front street, Wednesday night was quiet so don’t know if this was a regular noise night.

Disliked: Cleanliness
Bien mais quelques points décevant dont j’ai fait part au checkout. Je regrette beaucoup le fait d’avoir du mal à finir mes deux nuits correctement en raison d’une mauvaise isolation phonique. Les voyageurs manquant globalement de discrétion dans un établissement ou l’on espère y trouver du sommeil. Le lit était par contre de bonne qualité et confortable. Mais une légère mauvaise odeur dans la chambre m’a dérangé des l’arrivée, probablement les moisissures dans la salle de bain et les wc. J’ai apprécié la bouilloire et ce qui va avec. Le personnel était agréable. Et le parking à proximité bien pratique. Je n’ai pas profité du petit déjeuner je ne peux donc pas en juger.

Werde nicht mehr dahin fahren

Es ist etwas kompliziert, den Parkplatz ist 100 m weiter der Strasse entlang und das Zimmer nicht im Hotel sondern separat in einer Seitenstrasse Achtung Fahrer mit E-Auto sehr kompliziert zum Laden. In den Parkhäusern nur mit Französischen Steckdose zu laden, geht x Stunden zum Laden. Öffentliche Parkplätze keine Ladestationen. Ein Tag genügt für Rennes zu besichtigen.

problème d'isolation sonores

Le personnel est très sympathique et a même accepté que je garde la chambre jusque midi. Cependant, je dois reconnaître que je n'ai pas passé une bonne nuit à cause du manque d'isolation sonore de la chambre. Le bar en bas était bruyant mais ce qui m'a vraiment dérangé c'est d'entendre les voisions de chambre dans le couloir, ouvrir les portes (dans la nuit et tôt le matin) a plus de 150 euros la nuit, cela n'ait pas acceptable. à 60 euros la nuit je n'aurait rien dit bien sur. Le lendemain j'étais à Quimper et je n'ai pas eu ces problèmes alors que la chambre était à 76 euros. J'ai même bénéficié d'un vrai lit double alors qu' à Rennes c'était 2 lits simples, ce qui fait qu'ils se désolidarise et c'est désagréable.

Parking inondé

C'était mon 4ème séjour dans cet hôtel. Je trouve que la qualité du petit déjeuner à baisser : choix de pains et viennoiserie plus limité, ou de moins bonne qualité. Fromages coupés secs. D'autre part, j'avais pris un parking : le dimanche matin, j'ai eu la surprise de retrouver ma voiture dans l'eau ! La Vilaine était en crue, et dans la nuit, celle-ci a débordé dans le parking. Il aurait été préférable de prévenir les clients la veille, ou tôt le matin. J'avais de l'eau à mi mollet. Si j'étais parti plus tard, je pense que je n'aurais pu la récupérer.
