Hôtel bien situé mais je pense qu’il ne vaut mieux pas dormir côté port.
Pros:

L’hôtel est idéalement situé au coeur de la ville de Caen sur le port. La chambre était correcte.

Cons:

Même si l’hôtel est bien situé, au pied de l’immeuble il y’a des bars et sandwicheries qui sont très bruyantes la nuit jusqu’à 6h et ensuite le bruit de l’installation du marché le dimanche !
