Could of been better

2.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed 7 May 2018via mobile
So the good points were - decent room size, clean & friendly staff.

However, There were quite a few bad points -
1. The windows open inwards meaning you can’t close the curtains at night, meaning you have to keep them closed which then gets VERY hot in the room when it’s 28 degrees outside!! We tried the airconditionig but apparently they turn it off during the winter for the whole building and turn it back on in the summer.. it’s early May and it’s as I said 28 degrees outside.. surely this is summer now and air conditioning should be turned on for the building. Also leaving the window slightly open meant that our sleep was disturbed throughout the night with the noise from outside along with sleeping in a pool of sweat.

2. Parking is €2 per hour outside the hotel - they do not give free parking even though the hotel is quite pricey for what it is.

3. What kind of Business suite only provides 2 pillows?

4. Breakfast was €10 - which was a lot for some crossaints and juice. (We obviously did not eat breakfast at this hotel and found other places which were cheaper and much better).

5. There weren’t any English channels on the TV apart from a news channel. I get that I’m in France and it’s french TV, but there were so many English/American movies on dubbed in French - and we couldn’t even get English subtitles! There wasn’t really any point of paying for a TV for us.

6. Having the kitchenette was handy but it lacked a few items like a chopping board, dish wash liquid...
Overall I would not recommend this place for the price you pay!!
Not a happy guest here.

Please do something about this.

      I stayed here for for 5 nights. If you a looking for a place to stay close to the University of Bordeaux campus in Talence this is a right place. It is located less than 10 minutes walk (uphill) from Agora University of Bordeaux. It is a new building, 3 minutes walk from the tram station (line B). Spacious and clean room with small kitchen. Kind staff. Small breakfast room and small lobby. No hotel bar. Free fast wifi, but the connection broked few times. Ask for a room looking at the nearby botanical garden.

      Wonderful place - clean, large room and bathroom, towels changed every day. Above all, extremely nice and supportive staff.
      Breakfast is OK - but I suggest to get the bread and bakery from another provider, they are not as I had in other hotels in France.
      You can get rid of the tram noise if you close the window - which maneuver, by the way, automatically turns on the AC.
      Great if you have something to do in Talence - Bordeaux can be easily reached by tram, it takes like 20 minutes to downtown, and the tram runs frequently.

      We arrived late in the evening but was welcomed by a friendly receptionist who haves us a map and helped us to our room. Great experience staying at this clean, stylish and topnotch hotel. Do be aware that the hotel is a bit far away from the the main station, especially if you are on foot.

      Room tip: Make sure to catch a tram or bus to get to the hotel.

      Very new, clean and modern apartment hotel. Location is excellent in a nice and peaceful neighbourhood, not far from Bordeaux city centre. Tram stop is very near. I also noticed a laundromat conveniently located across the road. Room is well designed and bathroom is a decent size. Air conditioning can be controlled in the room. I also liked the fact that the room is well equipped with microwave and stove in addition to the standard kettle, and there is a sink next to the mini stove as well for washing up (I did not see any detergent & scrubber tho). Pans, crockery and cutlery are also provided.

      The apartment hotel does not have car parking in the building. Uncovered public parking is just outside the hotel which only uses credit card for payment. It is quite tricky to get to grips with how the parking charges apply, however overnight parking is free which is good. I would recommend taking the tram into the city and leave the car in the car park. Car parking in the city centre is a nightmare.

      I would have liked some instant coffee sachets in the room, as only herbal tea bags were provided.
