ibis budget Montauban Les Chaumes 2 stars

Ras

Looking for a one night stay near the motorway on our way home through France. Simple, clean, no frills, comfy bed, buffet breakfast. Would use again as £30 per room cheaper than the sister Ibis next door

What really made our stay excellent is Julie. She is an exceptional professional. She should be working in a 4-5 * as she really understand client's requests. Our room was not very clean upon arrival, the mattress where my 3 years old was sleeping, the cover has not been changed. Julie made sure everything was in order on the 2nd night.

Chambre correct

Again met the high expectations we have of the brand. Overall better than expected from a budget hotel.

Didn't like the bathroom in the bedroom apart from that it was a pleasant stay after a very long journey, breakfast was very good for the price.

Very good parking, excellent staff and very clean, as it has been on every visit we have made. The only two criticisms I have and have mentioned before are 1. The toasters are very poor and slow by todays standards, 2.It is very difficult to eat cereal with the tea spoons you provide, it would be nice to have dessert spoons as in other hotels. Thanks

Ok, but I have stayed in a four star with breakfast and dinner for less than that amount, for one person in Dublin and Galway Ireland

What is the point of making the budget rooms so austere? Why not have a walled bathroom with a door? In future will only stay at a Ibis budget where no other alternative hotels brands are available.

As normal clean and well run by very nice staff. To eat cereals at breakfast with a tea spoon seems odd and slow, desert spoons would be more appropriate and possibly make breakfast turnaround quicker. Also at breakfast unnecessary queues form waiting for an old inefficient toaster, the same type seems to be used in all Ibis Budget Formula 1 hotels. Overall reasonable value for money.

Very good place to stay. Ideal for travelling as by the main road. Lovely room.

Always clean tidy and pleasant staff, at breakfast it would be useful to have desert spoons for cereal and all the toasters are very old and slow slow causing an unnecessary queue.

I found the hotel to be clean and basic, although much more basic than I am used to as an American.

The room and service are super basic; a notch below what you would expect at a Super 8 or Motel 6 in the US. The front desk was staffed only during the standard check-in time with an ATM-style machine for check-in outside of that window. Also no keys for the doors but rather a code to get into your room. All in all it felt very bare bones for the price to someone more accustomed to American style limited service chains.

Check-in desk was efficient and friendly. Room was basic but had most things we needed - though maybe a lighter duvet would have been a better option during the summer. Found the wi-fi (not mentioned in the room info) so happily planned the next stage of our journey. Range at buffet breakfast was more than adequate, allowed us to fuel up for the day ahead and was excellent value for money. Only complaint was lack of any non-French language TV channels. Even CNN of BBC world news not available - so back to the wi-fi.
