Exceptionally friendly and helpful staff. Modern building and facilities. Pleasant surroundings, near to Rouen University Pasteur campus and the redeveloped Rive Droite, River Seine waterfront. Very clean. Good value. Enjoyable, add-on (continental) breakfast, with simple, yet tasty food (fruit, yoghurt, cereals, eggs, cold meats, bread and pastries).
High quality bathroom facilities (for a budget hotel), although, in contrast, the room furnishings were rather simple and spartan (for example, the metal tables have a somewhat poor 'feel' about them). In-room tea/instant coffee making capability would also be a really worthwhile addition, and worth a handful of Euros on top of the price paid for the room.
