Stayed one night, very nice hotel, clean, near enough to town to find a good restaurant, good range of breakfast options though no cooked hot food. No noise problem at all a we had a room not overlooking either road. Can imagine it might be slightly noisier if facing the main road but even so, good glazing should deal with that. Bathroom needs towel rails fitted because as soon as you've used a towel there's nowhere to hang it apart from one tiny metal hook high up on a wall.

Chambre mal isolée, autant dormir avec les voisins. Acceuil correct, mais une fois l’échange fait pas de volonté d’aider le client. Discours très peu courtois après avoir demander des explications.

Confort de proximité

établissement choisi à l'occasion d'une participation à un colloque et pratique pour sa proximité avec le réseau de circulation et avec le centre de Douai.Très bon accueil, chambre vaste (surclassée) et confortable, petit déjeuner très correct... tout serait parfait si ce n'est l'insonorisation qui n'épargne rien des rentrées tardives et bruyantes de pensionnaires peu soucieux de l'existence des autres clients. Par contre, aucune nuisance à signaler de l'extérieur.
