“Everything beautiful but not close to the center”

A beautiful building facing the Loire and the skyline of the city on the other side of the river. It is in the business district of the town near the congress center. This is its downfall because it takes 15-20 minutes to reach the center. Our apartment was very comfortable with a beautiful view on… more

A beautiful building facing the Loire and the skyline of the city on the other side of the river. It is in the business district of the town near the congress center. This is its downfall because it takes 15-20 minutes to reach the center. Our apartment was very comfortable with a beautiful view on the river. New bathroom, comfortable chairs, large screen TV, everything beautiful. Unfortunately there are no clearly visible signs to address guests to the residence so if you have difficulties to reach it by the car don't worry. Anyway you cannot reach the entrance of the residence with the car and you must walk the last few meters.

“Staffing issue”

The hard product is pretty good. My little apartment was well laid out with a sliding door between the fairly spacious bedroom / kitchenette area and the reasonably sized bathroom (I was there on my own, so no idea what sound proofing is like). There's a decent number of lights of varying types.… more

The hard product is pretty good. My little apartment was well laid out with a sliding door between the fairly spacious bedroom / kitchenette area and the reasonably sized bathroom (I was there on my own, so no idea what sound proofing is like). There's a decent number of lights of varying types. The bed was pretty comfortable, and a decent size. The kitchenette seemed fine although I was only there for one night, so didn't really use it much. There was a kettle, filter coffee machine (no filter coffee provided), a fridge and a mini dishwasher. I was provided with one coffee sachet, one tea and one hot chocolate, and packet of two biscuits. The WiFi is pretty good, with a simple login process. I never actually tried the tv during my few waking hours at the property. In shower is in a three quarters size bath - and the shower itself was reasonably strong, with good temperature controls. The shower gel was some generic bottle bolted to the wall, and wasn't the best. No other toiletries were provided. The only complaint I have with the hard product is the lack of aircon. There was a fan which I turned on overnight - but I should have probably set it to high, and set it to oscillate. The room seemed pretty warm with just me in it, so you'd definitely need something stronger if there's two of you! The property was let down by sloppy staff work. I got out of my shower to discover there was no towel. I later discovered that the bin hadn't been emptied. And when I was about to go to sleep I discovered that the bed hadn't been made properly - how hard is it to tuck in a base sheet properly? The staff at both checkin and checkout were very pleasant though, with decent english. And the midday checkout is good - apparently possible to extend to 2pm subject to availability, but I didn't need it, so didn't ask. There's a little section next to reception with items to purchase, but there's no minibar in the room. Breakfast is also available until 10am at weekends and finishes slightly earlier on weekdays (for 15 euro I think), but I didn't wake up in time to try it! The location is great for the main station (gare du nord) - less than a 15 minute walk through an area that felt pretty safe. I also walked home from the main bar area around Bouffay at 2am without any problems. It's also pretty easy to get to Residhome from the airport - you can either take the express bus (Navette Aeroport) for 10 euro to the main station. Or simply take bus 38 from the airport to the end of the line, and the grab a very regular bus 4 to Cite de Congres stop (with a handy Carrefour opposite) and then a pleasant walk (with some steps over a bridge) to the property. I'd happily stay at Residhome again if the price was right.

“Decent choice for basic expectations”

I have been there for family vacations. 2 adults and 1 child. It is an old but refurbished hotel in front of the river with great view. 10 minutes walking distance from the city center.

I have been there for family vacations. 2 adults and 1 child. It is an old but refurbished hotel in front of the river with great view. 10 minutes walking distance from the city center. The room was quite narrow for 3 persons. The bathroom was fine. The room was decently clean. The breakfast with an additional cost of 15€ per person was sufficient. The staff was very polite. Summarizing it is a good choice for a medium level budget (for France) and basic expectations.
