Absolultely tiny room - claustrophobic
Friendly reception and breakfast provided for a decent price. However, the room was titchy - barely 20cm on either side of the bed and 50cm at the foot of the bed. The bathroom didnt look particularly clean as i found hair from other people there, and i occasionally smelt wafts of urine. The bottom sheet of the bed just wouldnt stay in place, exposing the matresse underneath.

Séjour correct pour une ou deux nuits. L’hôtel Hôtel Balladins Blois est simple mais pratique, surtout grâce à son grand parking et sa proximité avec le centre commercial et plusieurs restaurants accessibles rapidement.
La chambre était propre dans l’ensemble, le petit déjeuner reste basique mais suffisant pour commencer la journée. Ce n’est pas un hôtel haut de gamme, mais pour un court séjour ou une étape sur la route, le rapport qualité/prix est correct. Le personnel est accueillant et l’emplacement est pratique.

Accueil tres chaleureux, personne avec de l'humour. Seul bémol peut-être chambre un peu exiguë.
