“A Hostel?! Ok...”

A bit of a shock to find my husband had unwittingly booked a Hostel, but we loved it! The rooms are cycle themed, with cycling artwork in the rooms and on the doors.

A bit of a shock to find my husband had unwittingly booked a Hostel, but we loved it! The rooms are cycle themed, with cycling artwork in the rooms and on the doors. It has a very unique vibe to it, in the lobby and communal areas. We were impressed with the food in the Garden restaurant and the room was comfortable and clean. It is on a main road / High street but the sound insulation was ok. We found free parking on side streets nearby. A really unique place to stay, as a one off...

“Great Hostel with Private Rooms & Refreshments”

We stayed one night at this fun hostel located in a convenient area of Tours. It’s an easy walk to the center of town.

We stayed one night at this fun hostel located in a convenient area of Tours. It’s an easy walk to the center of town. However we were glad that the hostel has a bar which also offered a a few snack ps. When we arrived (very hungry from a long day of travel), we were able to relax with a drink and a cheese/meat platter. They also provide luggage storage if you arrive before check in time. There is also a restaurant, which we didn’t try because it opened later. We reserved a private room with bath that was small, but comfortable and quiet. We had a great night’s sleep and would recommend the hostel for a short stay. All of the staff were friendly and helpful.

“Bare bones hotel, not hostel”

I actually spent more than on a budget hotel to come here as I thought it would be more sociable. The reception staff are friendly and the bar area is nice.

I actually spent more than on a budget hotel to come here as I thought it would be more sociable. The reception staff are friendly and the bar area is nice. Bike storage is good although the door got left open a lot. The room was small, no problem, and clean, but had no chair and because of a protruding picture on the wall you couldn’t sit lengthways on the bed, only sideways. So in the bedroom you can only lie down or stand, effectively. Maybe I was unlucky but there was a group of schoolchildren who chatted noisily outside my room to 1130 when the teacher arrived to put them to bed. The kitchen was very small so it’s not like a uk hostel where most people cook and there’s lots of chat. The “chill out room” was set up as a meeting room, so not so chilled but at least somewhere I could sit down with my laptop, although 4 floors from my room. Oh and when I went to the restaurant, which looked good, I went in, no staff appeared, there were people eating there. I went to the serving hatch to be told the restaurant was closed. I couldn’t see any notice saying this. So ok, but not very cosy or comfortable.
