    The thin walls! We could hear our neighbouring room people speaking... and they must have heard us!

    The old feel of Bayonne! The uneven floor of the old building. The quaint room decor.

    The floor is not straight, you have the feeling of dusty place. Also, the hotel has no parking.

    The location is very good, the hotel is an old building, let say is acceptable for a night no more.

    A nice stay if you don't mind the old decor and you're not looking for a luxuous room.

    There was a window from my room into the hotel's corridor, thankfully with a curtain to block the view. The other side of the corridor was full of windows that had a view on the neighbour's appartment, only a few meters away, where we can see them. Everything was quite clean but there were a few stains on the towels, some parts of the paint / furniture were dented and scratched. The walls are thin and you can hear people from the rooms next to yours.

    The staff was very nice, there were two very friendly dogs confined to the breakfast room that enjoyed pets and were not too nagging.

    Well, it's a charming building in the old city center, so no elevator. In case you are, like me, carrying a lot of luggage and arriving too late for asking someone to give you an hand, better asking for a room at the first floor...

    Very cosy, stylish hotel.

    WiFi wasn't available after 7pm. On arrival we didn't get the code but when we went to reception to get it, it had closed early (before 7pm) :( The pillow was a weird set up. It was a bolster which was wrapped in the sheet (didn't have a pillow case)!! We paid extra for breakfast, (€8) which was a very basic continental one. Not nice coffee. The carpets were very manky.

    The location was great in the city centre. The building is old and quirky with a lovely atmosphere.

    No AC in bedroom & no window to open, so it was very hot & stuffy. Shower head holder was broken. Pillows were unsuitable. No WiFi in rooms.

    Location was excellent, friendly welcome by hosts & dogs, nice breakfast. Historical house with interesting decorations.

    The room was quite dark with few power points and tired decor. There was an abiding smell of air freshener.

    This was a pretty building with nice breakfast space. It is well situated in the town centre. Extra pillows were provided promptly on request.

    During the heat of the day, the room was warm. Only one window which was in the bathroom. One has to park the car on the street and carry you luggage to the hotel.

    The room had a great location, right in the middle of the old part of town, and close to the other parts of the city. The shower was great.

    We knew that we didn't have ensuite bathroom facilities but the location of the toilet/shower was quite inconvenient and far from our room. There was a basin in our room.

    The location of the hotel was good. . We were only staying one night, in transit, so were not too fussed about the room/facilities. Location was our key priority.This is an old building, with some charming features. I have the feeling some rooms are much better appointed than ours and so you could have had a much better experience staying in a grander en-suite room. We arrived late, so no contact with staff.
