This place is an aberration. It is nothing like the listing, the stench of cigarette smoke is the nicest thing about the place, let’s just say that. The staff are sub-human. It is not air conditioned. The infestation of insects is bewildering and HOW this place remains open is beyond my comprehension. DO NOT STAY HERE IF YOU HAVE ANY SELF RESPECT.
The cons (out of town centre industrial estate location, shared bathrooms, generally basic etc) were fairly priced in so this exceeded my expectations as very clean, well maintained, good water pressure and small but comfortable enough rooms)
Friendly staff. Pleasantly surprised with room, clean, comfortable bed + space, air-conditioning, ok shower. For the price it was perfect. Only issue was the distance from town centre.
For the price we paid, very nice. We had room with private bathroom. Room is very small, bathroom as well. But, that’s the concept of this hotel, and that’s why the prices are less. It was clean, and the staff was very nice. 5 stars!
was nice but our air on wasn’t working so we were very hot and it was a small stuffy room :(

Can't really complain for £32 a night with breakfast. Clean basic room. Good WiFi. Basic breakfast. Bus 28 or 45 stops 5 mins away & brings you to St Pierre bridge in town. Just don't expect anything fancy. 6.5/10
The description claims this place has been refurbished but that must have been some time ago. Facilities were shabby and well worn. We upgraded to the cabrio room, with a private bathroom. The cabrio room was tiny. I’ve seen bigger bathrooms in camper vans and the aircon was barely adequate. It was also located on what looks like an industrial estate.
We stayed in many F1s and generally like them but this one is best avoided.
This property was a joke, no bathrooms inside the room. Room was so small, no space for my stuff. Far from the city, not even the Uber want it to go there. Location terrible. Staff were nice but the hotel the worse I seen ever !!!! Will not recommend it at all to no one .
Clean and good service. Well worth the price for a
I was expecting own toilet/shower but they were pods out side the rooms.
Was given room change as someone had obviously been smoking in the room. So service was good.
There are no restaurants near to the hotel but we had food delivered and there are some small dishes available from the reception. Looked like microwave food. Breakfast st for €5 was adequate

NO BARS
Only 1 Chinese restaurant. No bars it's in a industrial area Shared toilet & shower on landing. No sink in toilets
The conditions of the room is excellent for the price you get. There is a language barrier with staff and the lady in the evening who was grumpy and was not even able to help with wifi but the lady in the morning was super helpful and even printed out my boarding pass for me which was very kind of her

The location was quite unique, only a €10 Uber ride to the city centre.
Nice clean place, good value for money. A bit out of town with no transit options. The walls are very thin, easy to hear everything in the hallways from rowdy groups coming back to late night phone calls.
BEWARE! The pictures and descriptions of this hotel are far from reality. Without a car you have to walk an extremely long way (at least 30 min) through a bad part of town just to get into the city center. Speaking of the walk, we had to hop scotch our way to the door because there was piles of feces, yes poo all over. In regards to the service we experienced an unwelcoming and quite uncooperative employee at the front desk. As we looked around the lobby our eyes went straight to the buffet breakfast...or should I say counter of crumbs. There was one container of stale cereal, a basket of old bread and a coffee machine. Overall I would say you get extremely less for the amount paid. We actually ended up turning back and booking another hotel in the city because we felt unsafe, far away from the city, and ultimately extremely unwelcomed.

motorway sevice station
Motorway service station style accommodation, with hostel style facilities. 30 minute walk away from civilization. Ok if your driving and looking for a bed for the night. Otherwise not so good. Small cramped, rooms. Uncomfortable beds. Hot and stuffy without air con. Smelly and dirty shared toilets. Not somewhere id stay again.
Value for money. Hotel in an industrial area but short 5 minute car ride into city centre. Clean room. Friendly staff. Ground floor rooms are pet friendly.
Pretty bad location behind a warehouse of some sorts, no air conditioning (if you think you can survive, think again), called a hotel when it's REALLY a communal shower/W.C hostel very misleading to us. Also think the water from the sink made us sick!
