ibis budget Saint Lo 2 stars

Very pleasent.

We had a lovely time using the hotel as a base for exploring the Normandy coast.

All good, according to expectations. Only minor comment is that front desk attendant didn’t speak English, but communication was achieved anyway

Good budget hotel with clean rooms and comfy beds. Staff were friendly and most helpful with directions and where to eat. Hotel has easy access for most of the beaches of Normandy.

The hotel was very good, with helpful, friendly staff. Lovely room, with everything that was needed. One negative thing, was when I asked about parking, I was only told about the pay parking in the garage, only to find, that there was a large car park, at the rear of the hotel.

Hotel was excellent the staff were welcoming and helpful would stay again.

The rooms were very modern, with good facilities, and a multi language TV. The staff were very friendly and helpful. We enjoyed our stay, and have booked again for the future.

We have stayed at this hotel now for 5 years in a row whilst participating in the Duo Normand cycle race. It was good to see that there had been a refurbishment of the hotel bedrooms and the photographs of the rooms influenced the 3 rooms that we then booked. We booked 2 double bed rooms which were satisfactory. However the third room was booked as a room with 3 single beds, which was preferential to the older room layout with a double bed and a bunk bed above. On entering the room we were allocated we had a room with 2 single beds, which were next to each other and so more like a double bed and a bunk above. This was not what we had booked and so after a conversation at reception our room was changed. This room was a room with 2 single beds, which were again next to each other. We moved the beds apart as much as we could which was about 40cm, and we felt that this room gave us less space than the first room. The change of furniture style was such that it presented a very minimal surface area to use and was not as good as the rooms before the refurbishment. So overall we were disappointed with the rooms this year, feeling as if it was more cramped and not as comfortable for the 3 nights we stayed.

I imagine this is the latest design. I have been staying in Etap/Ibis Budget for 13 years and this is the best. Good a d helpful staff.

Efficient and welcoming staff. Room a little on the small side - i.e. difficult to avoid knocking the wall mounted TV at the end of the bed when moving around the room. Only 2 very small pillows provided although I could have asked for another but perhaps larger ones should be provided. Towels were clean but very thin/scratchy so could do with replacement. Handy restaurant nearby.

One of the best standard hotel rooms I have stayed in. Used the check in on line facility, but it seemed to make no difference when I arrived.

First time stopping in this Ibis and it was very pleasant experience. The decor was fresh, the bed comfortable and the air conditioning kept the room at a pleasant temperature without being intrusive. Breakfast was a good mix of the usual things, breads, cereals and these were fresh. The only slight negative was the croissants ran out and either were not refilled or couldn’t be refilled.

We arrived after a long journey very hot and bothered but were soon cool and relaxed in our air conditioned rooms. The shower was better than we expected from a budget hotel, you usually get a tiny one with a shower curtain, but this had a proper door. The rooms were spotless and the beds comfortable.

Location of the hotel suited us very very well, supermarket was 5 minutes walk away and we were able to get fresh cheese, bread etc for our drive the next day. Italian restaurant was just round the corner and we had a good evening meal. Breakfast before departure was a bit busy, but good selection of items. One suggestion for improvement, it would have been useful to be able to hot water for an evening drink or maybe even a hot drinks machine in the reception area.
