1. Extremely tight maneuvering to get in and out of underground parking garage! 2. No lift (elevator) from parking to hotel. 3. Security card reader disactivated in lift. 4. No refrigerator in room. 5. No mineral water in room. 6. Broiled eggs (almost uncooked), to be replaced at breakfast. 7. Very amateurish website ( this applies to Accor in general). 8. No recognition for previous Accor frequent guest membership. No points transfer, no attempt to contact me. Poor, if I compare to IHG!!’ 9. Complicated reservation system. Landlines were out of order. Finally got through a few days later and booked a three single bed, bedroom! I had no other open options. When I checked in they were puzzled I did not book a single queen size (or double bed room). 10. Staff all VERY Pleasant, but it seems that Accor does not train professionally all to reach a good level. I have stayed in a few hundred hotels of the different chains worldwide in over 40 countries in the last 40 years, as my profession required me to travel a lot. 11. I received this survey request in German? Why? Conclusion: too many things not right! The hotel needs a renovation, but IBIS / Accor management needs a goose shake-up!!!

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We have taken note of your comments regarding your stay. However, several of the points you raised pertain to the general operation of the loyalty program, the reservation system, or communications from the Accor Group—matters over which our hotel unfortunately has no control. As for the hotel, we strive every day to offer our guests the warmest welcome and the best possible service, and we’re pleased to hear that you found our staff very friendly. Thank you for your feedback, and we wish you all the best on your future travels. Best regards, Aline C. – Ibis Besançon Centre La City
