Good

The hotel is good, clean and comfortable. However it doesn’t have any designated parking and I found it difficult to find a parking space nearby. Luckily on a Sunday night parking was free until 0930 on the Monday morning
I never stayed in such a small place with the smelliest toilet/shower combination and bathroom door that barely opened and closed past the bed. We were allowed to check in early but reception lacked any friendliness or warmth. Location was next to our car rental and across the street from the train station which was exactly what we needed. I would consider other hotel options adjacent to this hotel in the future.

Two night stay.
Perfect location for the station. Good wifi and helpful staff. Did not need parking and did not have breakfast. Did the job as described but it is a budget option, room has all essentials but no kettle or refrigerator. Fine for 1 or 2 nights but would not want to stay any longer .
The room was fine basic but clean, the area wasn't great right next to the station and parking wasn't easy. If you want a quick night it's fine but if you are driving choose an out of town hotel

This place is right across from the train station so it was a necessary place to stay for 1 night . It was clean inside. Rooms are dated and the breakfast is not worth paying for. Not safe area so when you left you took all valuables but didn’t feel
Safe walking around with them. Lots of loud fights and police constantly in the area. So no would not stay there again. Would take a cab from somewhere else. I see why they lock their front doors in the evening. The area is so dirty. Drug deals and people peeing on the street. Yuck Staff were lovely and helpful tho.
Sammy the receptionist was brilliant and very helpful, enjoy a drink Sammy I left €5 with the other receptionist for you, great value and location on our motorcycle trip to Normandy beaches

Basic Ibis hotel
Very basic hotel opposite the rail station. Lots of what looked like immigrants hanging around the cafe next door.
Not the safest environment
The front desk person was very friendly and informative. The room was small but we didn't need a big room either. Clean and cozy and quiet and snelled nice.
very noisy part of town, with fights going on outside between the locals on arrival, no parking (although street parking is very cheap) very no frills, there are much better options available nearby
The staff at the property was so friendly and helpful. The woman who checked me in was very fast and efficient. The night man reminded where the internet code was. The day manager stored my bags while I toured the city. We talked about the area and the weather. The breakfast was very good and inexpensive. Thanks so much for a wonderful stay.

Book the other Ibis
It was okay for what was needed on a short stay. Area is a little dodgy, but at the end of a day a bed and shower and somewhere to change, personally recommend the other Ibis near this one
