Categories

Cleanliness
1
Repeated praise for very clean rooms and spotless facilities in many reviews; housekeeping consistently noted as a strong point ("propreté irréprochable", "très propre"). Score slightly elevated to reflect frequent positive mentions.
Service
1
Numerous comments highlight friendly, welcoming and helpful staff at reception and good advice from personnel, though a few mentions of a less friendly evening receptionist. Overall service is positive and has been slightly boosted to balance stronger negatives elsewhere.
Location
1
Many reviewers praise the hotel's location (near highway, good for visiting Blois, parking available, restaurants nearby). Location is a clear asset in the reviews.
Room Quality
1
Mixed-to-negative remarks about beds (small/narrow, hard, uncomfortable mattresses), some reports of unpleasant smells (sewer odor) and one report of dangerous electrical problems — room comfort/quality is the principal source of dissatisfaction.
Amenities
1
Parking is seen positively, but several amenity issues reported: on-site EV charging not working, some breakfasts described as too simple for the price; overall amenities receive mixed-to-slightly-negative sentiment.
Value for Money
1
Many guests praise the price/quality ratio, but there are counterpoints noting prices 'too expensive' or services not matching expectations; sentiment is mixed and leans slightly negative after accounting for those complaints.
Food and Beverage
1
Breakfast is often praised (good choice, enjoyable), though a number of guests describe it as average or too simple. Overall slightly negative-to-neutral balance.
Overall Experience
1
Overall impressions are mixed: several repeat guests and many positive stay reports, but recurring issues (beds, occasional odors, amenity failures, impersonal evening service) lower the general experience slightly.

Kann man für die Durchreise machen, nichts für ein paar Tage Urlaub in Blois
Pros:

Sehr freundliches Personal. Außerdem hat das Zimmer eine gute große, dunkelt in der Nacht sehr gut ab und über die Klimaanlage lässt sich der Raum super temperieren. Die Dusche war ausreichend groß und die Sitzbank (Zusatzbett?) praktisch als Ablagefläche (Tasche, Koffer und Co.) Optisch fand ich den Raum auch ansprechend eingerichtet.

Cons:

Das Bett hat bei jeder Bewegung geknarrt. Schläft man zu zweit dort, stört das sicher noch mehr. Auch die WC-Beleuchtung ist nicht optimal. Schaltet man das Licht an, geht automatisch auch das Licht über dem Spiegel mit an... der sich außerhalb des WCs im Schlafraum befindet. Absolut unpraktisch, wenn man sich den Raum teilt. Die Lage fand ich problematisch, es gibt in der Gegend eigentlich nichts. Ein Restaurant direkt nebenan, das aber nicht überzeugt (Essen okay, Service furchtbar).

Pros:

The breakfast was good and we liked the terrace to sit outside in evening over a beer or breakfast. EV chargers present but stopped charging in the middle of the night without a reason.

Cons:

The room is very basic, but comfortable. The shower leaked a lot due to design issue.
