10/10 Excellent
"I was really pleased with my stay - the hotel was just across the road from the station and right on the edge of the centre of Rennes, a great location. The room was fantastic - love the decoration, the bed was incredibly comfortable and the air-conditioning was a life saver in the heat! Breakfast is cheap & cheerful, the standard continental breakfast. I did really like the crepes and the fresh vanilla loaf. The staff were very friendly and helpful - thanks again to the team."
