South AfricaI stayed in a single room. It had a double bed and a balcony with a table and chairs, with a view over the swimming pool. The bathroom has a strong shower! There is a TV with channels from mainland France and La Réunion. There was no kettle, but I think this is common for most hotels in La Réunion. The location was fine, it is just outside the city centre, but there are enough facilities around the hotel for eating and shopping. Some reviewers have commented that they felt unsafe in the area. I do not know why they felt unsafe, it is a residential area and I felt perfectly safe.
The hotel is a very easy walk from the hotel to the Jardin de l'État and Rue de Paris. Also an easy walk to a bus stop for the airport (St Jacques). There are two big supermarkets near the hotel, E.Leclerc in Rue Monthyon and Carrefour in Rue du Bois de Nèfles. There is also a patisserie and a café with daily lunch just across the road from the Carrefour in Rue Bouvet, very convenient for lunch and coffee.
The hotel is very reasonably priced and the staff are wonderful. My flight arrived very early (6 am), but the hotel has a luggage room, where I left my luggage for the day. There is also a shower room that early arrivals can use, which was very convenient.
Some other reviewers have mentioned a lack of soundproofing, but I did not experience this. My room was quiet and I did not hear noises from surrounding rooms, which were all occupied.
I highly recommend this hotel. It is a no-frills hotel, but it offers great service, comfortable rooms, a good location and the staff make you feel very welcome. All at a very reasonable price.
