I have to say that I was rather underwhelmed with the room that we were allocated during our stay. The room looked nothing like the photos that are on the hotel's website. The wallpaper was very drab and the carpets were well-past their sell-by date. The bed was lumpy and the bathroom was cramped and dated. I asked the receptionist if we could move into a room like the ones on the hotel's website, but I was advised that all the rooms were the same as the one that we were allocated. I felt deceived. I expected rather more for the price that we paid. Needless to say, we won't be coming back.

Friendly welcome...reasonable price....very aging establishment including mattresses, sleep in the center to avoid falling...old bathroom....clean sheets...house of character in the heart of Chinon at the price of an ibis budget...the room deserves its price 69euro no more no less..

If I give this hotel one star it is only for the cleanliness and the welcome... on the other hand the 3 stars awarded to it should absolutely be taken away: the superior room that we had reserved was absolutely not soundproofed (we could hear the neighbor snoring, we were in his shower when he was taking it because the noise was so loud), when we went to bed we had the very unpleasant surprise of having a mattress that creaked at the slightest movement, the bathroom very cramped did not at all correspond to the criteria of a 3-star hotel, both by the size of the shower cabin and by the accessories that we should have found there: glasses other than paper cups, no shelves to put our things on ... Moreover, not even a bottle of water in the room, not a kettle to make tea or coffee, only an empty open fridge unnecessarily occupied the space... Very unpleasant experience for sure...

So already if you want to come there in the heat, remember to take a fan or simply don't go.. I arrive at the reception. I had to enter the name of my company 3 times to be found. Top floor without elevator and under the roof. I ask for at least a fan, nothing. I had to stay 2 nights out of professional obligation. The second night I absolutely had to look for a fan. Plus having to sleep with the window open, but with the noise downstairs impossible. Shower should not be big, bed average. Avoid if you want calm and sleep well.

For travelers who are afraid of nothing. Cleanliness and hygiene leave something to be desired. The manager is funny and welcoming but when we pointed out how dirty the place was, he flooded our phone with insulting text messages. I took photos for booking, with whom we had made the reservation but he declared "no show of customers" to cancel the reservation. In addition to the dirt, the stairs are quite dangerous, the timer is short and you find yourself in the dark between two floors, the buttons are difficult to find. The prices seem to be at the customer's discretion: displayed 42 to XX on *********** he reproached us for having ourselves announced a different price to him then he asked us for €57 (if I was not clear in this message, it is also unclear in the manager's figures). The photos I sent to Booking have disappeared. They showed close-ups of traces of toothpaste or soap on the bathroom shelf, hairs in the shower, stains on the towels as if someone had wiped grease off their face. A good thickness of dirt and cobwebs on the shutter trays. In short, unless you are an adventurer and are used to sleeping in high mountain lodges, I do not recommend this hotel.

The service was very long. 1 hour to give us the cards, several people to take orders. Finally, we had desserts from the children's menu which we canceled after 2h30 in total. Some people arrived after us and served before us because these people knew the boss. Once it was time to checkout, fortunately we looked at the receipt because dishes had been added to us without us having ordered them. Some bland dishes without flavor, tagliatelle if you are not hungry you can have them. We will never come back and will not recommend it to anyone. To flee.

Small hotel in two buildings, large free parking opposite (except market days). Very clean rooms but very poorly soundproofed. Good restaurant. Breakfast with a relatively small buffet. Welcoming staff. Suitable for one step
