ibis budget Lille Marcq-en-Baroeul

Terribly filthy rooms, that my husband had to ask for a room change due to the conditions of the one appointed to him( and even the new room was small, with dirty sheets and dirty bathroom). Very rude staff also, and the highlight of his stay...the car was broken into during the night he spent there( so very coincidental how after having a not so friendly exchange with the staff when demanded a new room). And the "manager" said that they can't go over the security footage...how very convenient. And it seems to me that this is their MO when they see an opportunity

A simple straightforward cheap hotel. Thin walls and quite noisy no on site food or drink but a sister hotel 50 metres away with a bar. Bed change service noisy and very early in the morning 8-9am. Towels limited. Beds very firm and pillows thin and soft but more available on request. Curtiain is a rolling blind. Vinal floor in rooms so quite chill and noisy. No table or desk as such and only 6 or so hangers for clothes. Staff at both here and Style lovely and spoke English well and were very, very helpful and nice. Our man had a new job at Crown Plaza Montpellier, a loss to Ibis in our opinion as he was ace. Close to tram for Lille and Robaix - 10 minuute walk. For the money did its job but would pay more for better elsewhere.

You really do need the GPS to find this location. A plus is that's near highway, just be careful not to enter Ibis Styles by mistake, as it's just next to it. The room is small, bathroom even smaller, but you get what you paid for. Overall, not excellent, but not bad either..

The Garmin GPS listed multiple matching addresses as it seems there are multiple roads with the same name in this town. Better if you locate the IBIS hotel by point of interest instead (the IBIS Style is also nearby). The road leading into the business centre has a very convoluted entry, with multiple loops required to enter the area. The hotel cannot be seen from the road. The hotel is still being renovated when we stayed in Aug 2016, However, it's only a refurbishment of an old hotel, so don't expect the same standard as the newer Ibis Budget hotels. Seems like a new coat of paint was applied and not much else.There was the smell of paint as we entered the room. This necessitated leaving the window ajar - until the insects started coming in. There is a wire cable that prevents the window from being swung fully open (at least in the third floor room) and, while the scaffolds are still up and outside the room window, this provided a sense of security. There is no air-conditioning, but that's normal for the Budget hotel range. The hotel has elevators (but the interior is still waiting to be renovated). The Wifi signal range is marginal on the third floor, especially if your room is located away from the middle of building. The free wifi worked well in the reception area though. The door closers are old and, as a result, all the doors slam as guests enter/exit their rooms. Other than this noise, the hotel is situated in a quiet location.. The beds in the room were comfortable. The receptionist was pleasant. The hotel rate was good value.

Had 2 rooms in the hotel whilst taking part in the Paris Roubaix Sportive and watching the pros. Was sufficient and not a huge amount more. Free parking which seemed safe enough and a nice easy ride in to Roubaix centre of about 4 miles ish. Is as basic as basic comes but not bad for a few lads as a base.
