“Fine, just fine”

St. Lo was as far as we could get that day. Dropped in at the Tourism Office to ask for a hotel and they pointed across the main square to this one.

St. Lo was as far as we could get that day. Dropped in at the Tourism Office to ask for a hotel and they pointed across the main square to this one. We had stayed at a Mercure property before so we took it. This one wasn't quite as modern and efficient as the previous one, but it was fine for a comfortable nice sleep. Seemed rather quiet for mid-summer. Felt like there was hardly anyone around. Cheery front desk lady checked is in in no time and we headed along the hallway to our room. Room a little narrow but long. All modern facilities. Above all a comfortable bed. Re-charged for a while and then headed out for something to eat. Tried the hotel restaurant but it was singularly unexciting. Ended up back on the main sqaure. Four minutes walk to a great meal in friendly surroundings. Breakfast next morning was standard but filling. We headed out.

We had a reasonable 2 day stay in this hotel, which despite its name, is not central but a way out of the centre of St. Lo, opposite the rail station. The staff were very welcoming and helpful and the room was comfortable. We had a few problems with the hotel though. Firstly, the restaurant was very disappointing. The staff were very young and clearly inexperienced so the service was earnest but poor. The food was pretty mediocre. Secondly, on both days we were there, kids (friends of the junior restaurant staff no doubt) were allowed to congregate across the steps to the entrance which was a little annoying whenever we were going in and out of the hotel. Not a good look for the hotel which they did nothing about. Thirdly, on our last night, at around 1.30 to 2.00 in the morning, guests or staff started a party outside at the back of the hotel. It didn’t last long but it was an unwelcome disturbance. Finally, we were charged for a breakfast we never took and when we asked to be reimbursed we were told we’d have to wait for the manager to arrive, which because we had a ferry to catch was not possible. Despite their promises we still haven’t been reimbursed.
