Première Classe Dunkerque - Saint-Pol-Sur-Mer
2/10 Terrible
"The staff was great but the room was horrible. It had been regularly and recently smoked in and the whole room was so stinky it made us sick in the first few minutes. This is a deal for truckers and some labor workers but not for tourists. "

B&B HOTEL Dunkerque Centre Gare
6/10 Okay
"I booked this hotel solely due to the location near the train station. This was our first time in France and I didn’t want to be wandering the streets of Dunkirk looking for my hotel. Also my French sucks.
The pros: incredibly close to the train & bus station which was surprisingly quiet it was at night. The added bonus is that the bus system in Dunkerque is free, and once we figured out what bus we needed to get on to get to the plage & museum, we were golden. We also paid additional for the breakfast, which I compared to what you would pay in the States, was well worth it. We were given hot options (the eggs seemed like they were actually cooked- not that gross stuff from a bag you see in many American hotels) and my son was very pleased. And though we were surprised by three separate twin beds, they were indeed comfortable, so I can’t complain there.
CONS: our shower. The drain was clogged up and since it was a walk in, you had to shower, turn off the water, let it drain, and then continue. We were only there one night, and we had already had a bit of a snafu with the language barrier when we checked in, so I didn’t want to complain. At breakfast I realized we were not only the oldest people there, but only one traveling with a kid. I felt like this hotel was one step above a hostel, and had to double check that wasn’t what I booked. "
