The staff is friendly. The bar is great, and room is clean.
It’s an excellent location, two train
stations (one is international) and subway are nearby. Grand Place is in walking distance.
Great location within steps of Gare de Lille Flandres.
Very friendly and helpful staff. We had breakfast and dinner also which was very good.
Happy to recommend this place.
Excellent place to stay. On arrival i thought it would be a noisy pub stay but it was quiet, clean and comfortable room and perfect location. Access to transport and shops, plenty of dining nearby but the meals and service on site are great so didnt explore far
This hotel was perfect for a quick stay in Lille. Service was friendly and room was just fine. They allowed us to drop our bags off early so we didn’t have to walk around with them. The only negative was when we entered our room it was full of flies but that was due to a window being left open. Overall was a good stay.

Room was fine but noisy with all the bars below. Very conveniently located opposite the station. Would have liked person checking me in to make it clear there are two options for breakfast (which was served in room above the bar that I didn't like much): better to just order breakfast in the bar if wanting croissant and coffee. Had good value evening meal there.

Friendly atmosphere in both bar & hotel, rooms are small and bathroom space limited. set in the area of great restaurants and train services, you don't need to roam to far from home base. being the centre oF activity it is also noisy, particularly for the early sleepers

Average
Very very average. Bed was comfortable and bathroom clean enough. Service is nothing amazing, but not terrible.
Location was amazing with a pleasant welcome however our trip changed when we discovered that raw sewage was coming up through our shower tray. We informed staff of this who seemed very disinterested. This then gradually got worse before going across our floor, making the bathroom unusable. The sewage was then going through the ceiling to the floor below and eventually down a further floor to the restaurant. Even at this point the staff only said that they would ring ‘the big boss’. At no point did they seem apologetic towards us. We had to leave the room for the day and fortunately it had been repaired on our return minus the smell but not what you expect even from a budget hotel.
Stayed for two nights with my daughter. The staff were excellent and very patient with me as very little French speaking. Would definitely recommend for a short stay.
