A friendly face makes all the difference!
Pros:

A typical aging budget hotel on a commercial estate on the outskirts of town - but well located for onward travel, ample flat parking (not secured behind gates but safe enough). The buffet breakfast was quite sufficient and well stocked with fresh produce rather than the pre-packed varity that some of these types of hotels offer. The room itself was tiny, especially if, like us, you are travelling on a motorcycle and need additional space for riding gear etc - but OK for one night The double bed was big, which while welcome did compromise movement around the room, Towels and linen were fresh and clean, the shower worked well, the room itself was clean, if a little weary. Staff we encountered were all friendly. Price was reasonable.
But aside from all that the best part of our stay was the manager - a charming man who was a joy to chat with!

Cons:

The building is looking very sorry for itself - these establishments were never built to last and age has taken its toll.
As always limited availabilty of places to eat and drink out on these estates and a pretty soulless environment - but OK for an overnight for travelling on or possibly a couple of nights if used as a base to travel into Blois for a day.

Séjour décevant, établissement qui mériterait une bonne rénovation.
Pros:

Petit déjeuner très correct au regard de son coût. Point positif l’accueil du gérant.

Cons:

Eu égard le prix de la chambre nous ne nous attendions pas à un palace, pour autant l’étroitesse de la chambre, le manque d’entretien des extérieurs laisse deviner un établissement vieillissant dans son jus. Propreté de la chambre qui laisse à désirer.
