Avion Pinchonvalles Slag Heap Hotels

"Clean and well-thought rooms, very friendly and helpful staff, nice breakfast. No kettle/coffee machine in the room, but given the very reasonable price it's still a strong recommendation from me."

"The room was clean, comfortable and nicely equipped. "

"We checked in at 0030 so reception was closed which was expected. The message from the hotel gave me a code to use to gain entry. At the hotel I was faced with a check in computer asking for my name and reservation number . After 20 minutes I could not find a reservation number it would accept We used the intercom to speak to someone and got the reservation number. Using this we ‘eventually ‘ got the door to open after about 5 attempts. The code sent by the hotel was infact the reservation number . A simple change in language could have assisted here . Without my message to the hotel prior to travelling this code would not have been sent or available - so despite not knowing this code was the reservation number - how are you supposed to find that out if you don’t know you need it till 0030 when you are tired and trying to check in. It was a poor check in process which even asked for around 2€ in payment and if we wanted breakfast etc . Can you imagine at 0030 if I want this - we just wanted to get to bed not be questioned A very poor system "

"Staff and room were lovely. Dinner was nice, but the drinks were very expensive (small glass of wine €10). Breakfast, for the price, (€22 each) was very average"

"Yes. Excellent amenities at a reasonnable price and very convenient locarion. Staff was eager to respond and cover any need."

"Good"

"We were travelling from Switzerland to Calais and back to uk. Needed somewhere inbetween to rest. Had good reviews so booked this place and also had free parking. The checkin is only open from 1600-2000. We were running late and therefore had to contact reception. The lady who assisted us was wonderful and organised out of hours check in The parking is on street parking and depends on availability of space and therefore free parking is not necessary available. The room was not clean. It smelt foul. There was mould on the sponge on the sink. One of the beds smelt like a drunk homeless man had slept on it. Had stains on the sheets. Could not sleep on that at all! The other bed had small bits on it. We slept with our clothes and for the minimum necessary to recuperate and be on our way The window opens directly onto the street where there is a bar and was noisy all night (it was a Friday night) I am surprised that it has 9/10 rating! Would definitely not rate it at all "
