Overall this is good location, within 10 min walk of most restaurants.
Parking is easy, right out front.
Quiet street.
Elevator would have been nice, but not critical.

We enjoyed our stay
We really enjoyed our stay here and think it's great value. The receptionist was very kind and helpful. The only downside iwas that we did expect parking to be included as per the app, but they only had three or four spots which were full so we had to pay for parking outside of the hotel.

Nice option when in Caen. The hotel staff was super friendly. They accomodated us in a perfect room for our baby.
I only think that the breakfast could be more complete. It did not have much variety.

No decent fire escape.
Bathroom was like a walk-in closet.
Breakfast poor. You have to ask for real coffeecups and fresh milk.
Parking lot was occupied. Only room for 4 cars. So had to park in public area.

Parfait pour une ou 2 nuits!
Nous avions besoin d'une chambre après l'arrivée tardive de notre ferry à Ouistreham sans avoir à faire beaucoup de kilomètres. La réservation en ligne était très facile et les consignes pour notre entrée après la fermeture de la réception bien reçues comme indiqué et faciles à utiliser.
Ce petit hotel simple est très bien organisé, très propre et a été refait récemment.
Notre chambre, bien que petite, était parfaite pour nos besoine et la salle de bains impeccable. Nous n'hésiterons pas à y retourner.

Small hotel with funky toilet
Hotelli ja huone on pieni, ei hissiä. Huoneen vessa on rakennettu huoneeseen väliseinällä jossa yläosa on avoinna. Ovet ovat kuin vaatekaapissa ja ensin luulimmekin ettei huoneessa ole vessaa ollenkaan. Lyhyt kävelymatka keskustaan ja kokonaisuudessaan hintansa arvoinen
