“Just Terrible”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 7 November 2011

person found this review helpful

My husband and I are disabled so we informed the hotel of our needs. When we arrived we were given a room with the bed about 6 ins from the floor situated up to a wall so that one person had to climb over the other (impossible in our situation.) The bathroom for disabled was accross the passage as the facilities in the room were up a high step!.
We got the room changed so that we could both get in and out separately but the facilities were still accross a passage.The hotel was not very clean and when I complained I was told that Hotel was old. I would have thought 25 year old maximum.

Room Tip: Go to a different hotel - other etaps ie Calais is a much better standard . These are budget hotels...

“disappointed”

person found this review helpful

this hotel is in a bad location on quiet French housing estate but you still get the noise from the motorway. the rooms are small, tirred the bed low to the floor and uncomfotable, smelly carpet and small tardis like shower and toilet unit. There is good parking.
Would not stay here again as loads of other similar price hotels in this area which are better.

“Sleep in your car”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 2 November 2011

We found the room dirty and tacky. Blankets instead of a quilt. Dirty smelly carpet and the plastic tardus of a shower/toilet glued to the corner of the room seemed to be unsteady and squeeky when being used. The bed was very low to the floor. Tv belongs in a museum.Window in room very small. Reception staff pleasant and the car park is secure at night so stay in your car.....
I would only stay in this Etap if it was modernised, if not book eslewhere.

“close to the port, clean, easy”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 25 October 2011

As we've found before this place was nice and clean, wasn't noisy the night we stayed, and parking is behind an electric gate. Not exactly secure but better than nothing. We arrived just before the auto check-in kicks in and the lady was nice and friendly.
Only reservation is the bed is the great, could do with a thicker mattress. Thats the only fault really, legged it to the ferry in the morning so didn't do the brekkie.

Room Tip: Furthest away from the stairwell as with most budget hotels, but I don't think you really get a...

“Good stay, well organized”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 23 October 2011

There is not a lot more to tell than thanks, it was a pleasure.
We arrived in the evening, got good tips to go out for dinner. The breaklfast was simple but good. It was just right before driving another 850km to home!
