Lovely Cottage
This cottage in Rennes is really lovely. Place feels like a true getaway from city life. Beds are very comfy and the towels are of good quality. Ghazal from the property management company was so helpful and even came off-hours to assist with an issue (which wound up being my fault that it happened in the first place). Please note that the cottage has three floors of steep stairs and a frail or disabled person would not be able to go upstairs comfortably.

Old Town stay
Modern remodeled bedrooms & bathrooms. Cobblestone walks, LONG distance from taxi drop-off, so long walk w/ bags over rough walks. Difficult check-in, language; no hot water at first. VERY dark at night; I fell over concrete pylon & smashed my face. Need motion-sensor lighting on outside of place. Lisa kindly got us taxi for early morning. Please give her a raise! Thank you Lisa.

Pretty old building in Rennes centre
We enjoyed our stay in the very private courtyard house. The property was lovely , but small. The stairs were steep especally as 4 of us are in our seventies. Ghazel was very helpful

Wonderful oasis in Rennes!
What a charming, cozy, and comfortable place to spend a lovely week in Rennes. The location is perfect - steps away from the the city center, but tucked away in a quiet courtyard on a quiet street. We slept so well on the comfy beds, loved hanging out in the cozy living room and had fun meals at the dining table. I wouldn't change a thing and I can't wait to go back. Thank you!

Une très belle expérience
J ai apprécié la location, même s'il y a des petites choses reliées à la entretien de la maison à revoir, mais cela n'a pas empêché de profiter de l expérience de vivre la ville en toute sa beauté historique.

Séjour agréable
A deux pas du centre ville situé dans une rue typique de Rennes au coeur du centre fait du Cottage Levingstone un lieu idéal. Très bien agencé, literie des plus confortables. Accueil top. Corentin, Julien et les équipes de l'agence Ococoonr sont formidables : souriants, réactifs, d'une gentillesse incroyable et répondant dans les plus brefs délais à vos doléances. Un petit bémol toutefois, du fait d'une demeure ancienne le séjour est très sombre et à cette époque nécessite la lumière à n'importe quelle heure de la journée. Néanmoins je recommande cet endroit très agréable et idéal pour découvrir cette belle ville de Rennes
