...back again for another night stopover
Ideally situated and suitable for a night stop, in my opinion. Not far from the shops & supermarkets. Plenty of on site parking. Good value for money and I find the bed very comfortable. Had a very good nights sleep. Slept like a log! Stayed several times now. Staff always friendly.

A pleasant stop over
Used several times now. Friendly staff speaking very good English. Very convenient location and good value for money. Nice queen size bed which I found very comfortable. Pillows were also comfortable however could do with being a bit longer. Bathrooms a little cramped so a larger person may find it difficult to manoeuvre in. All in all a pleasant stop over.

Pleasant stay
Stayed here a couple of times before and it's still very good value for money. FriendIy, pleasant and efficient english speaking staff. I found the bed very comfortable. The shower would probably be difficult to negotiate for a larger framed person. Breakfast available for an additional cost. Easy access from highway and ample parking. La Boucherie restaurant is just across the road.

Good value overnight accommadation.
Located within easy access of the highway. Needed a night stopover so this was ideal for me. Friendly bilingual staff. Free parking & WiFi. Room had a large double + a bunk. Toilet/shower a bit on the tight size, similar in size as the ones on the ferries. The shower was hot & powerful.I found the bed clean & comfortable. Breakfast, for the money, was ok but don't expect a huge selection. Couple of restaurants within a very short walk. All in all very good for an overnight stop however as space is limited in the room would be a little tight if three people sharing with luggage. My opinion is good value for money

Friendly and welcoming but unfortunatel too small.
Lovely friendly welcome, and good breakfast. Unfortunately the room was very small, we each banged our head on the tv on a few occasions, and the bathroom in our 2 birth caravan is bigger!! Good outside space for relaxing in nice weather. Despite the friendliness we would not stay again due to the smallness of the room. The river in Santes has a lovely park and walk by it, well worth a stroll.

Ideal stopover in a long journey
You get what you pay for, it is a cheap compact room ideal for a stopover on a long journey. The room was compact and smelled of smoke as there are smoking stations just outside the accommodation. No kettle but there is a 24hr beverage vending machine and they do supply hairdryers but you need to ask at reception before it closes.

Good budget hotel for one night stop off
Good budget hotel which served very well for a one night stop off traveling from the ferry down South. We arrived too late to see anyone at reception (which closes 9pm) but used the self check-in kiosk just outside which was quick and easy. Can't comment on the breakfast as we didn't have any but it is ideally situated near the motorway but also close to the centre of Saintes which is a lovely town complete with Roman amphitheatre and arch.

Thin walls:
Avoid if you are a light sleeper. I am a light sleeper and the walls are very thin, I could hear every work from the next room. Numerous chats during the night didn't help.

As an overnight stop it was fine. Breakfast provided at a cost was uninspiring with no real choice. Cannot really expect much more for the price.

Bank holiday break
Ideal budget hotel for short stay such as ours. Room was smaller than similar priced hotels but did have the advantage of having an en-suite wet room with shower. Breakfast was an "all-you-can-eat" style continental job but due to the high occupancy rate, there was a limited selection remaining by the time we got there but there was plenty of the limited choice. A loyalty scheme exists and we were happy to join and look forward to similar breaks in this hotel and others of the chain.

basic but useful
Useful stopover when travelling the west of France. Everything very plastic and basic, but staff friendly and helpful. Dinner in the sister hotel next door expensive for what you get even with 15% discount. Not somewhere I would go again.

Not the greatest but ok for over night stop
This hotel was ok for our journey back to the UK, but there is better ones out there for the same price, two of us & the dog had traveled from Villamartin Costa Blanca & this was just over half way, the sat nav route was just seven hours away from the tunnel & this was on the tolls roads, check in was fine, location was great for ease of access to motorway, but room was not so good, very small, the shower room was so tiny with a plastic built up floor, you could clean your teeth, go to toilet & shower all at the same time, (not that we did) there was no tea or coffee making facilities, no hair dryer, there was just two hand towels in the room no others & these were rock hard, the walls were thin you could hear your neighbours and traffic pulling up all through the night was noisy, so my overall view on this hotel would be to only use this as a last resort, this was just an over night stop to get our heads down but we would have liked to be able to have a full shower not just a wash & a good nights sleep would have helped when you have 10/11 hours further driving to do

À éviter (sauf pour le petit déjeuner)
Petite chambre au confort réduit au strict minimum. La lumière est très forte et aucune lampe de chevet ce qui est désagréable. La salle de bains (plutôt une salle d'eau dans tous les sens du terme) a la taille d'un placard tellement elle est exiguë. Rien n'est prévu pour poser ses affaires (pas d'autre choix que de les poser sur les w-c), le coin douche est un bloc en plastique minuscule dans lequel on peut à peine bouger (sauf si on est filiforme) et le sol est trempé quand on sort de sa douche. Rien à dire concernant la propreté. Les personnes de l'accueil sont aimables. Le seul réconfort est le petit déjeuner à volonté très copieux et varié (croissants, jus d'orange, yaourts, toasts et fromage...).
