The facility was old but well kept. In need of a lot of updating and someone who speaks English. NONE of the staff spoke any English. I would not recommend this Hotel to anyone who speaks only English.

I wasn’t able to check in. I never actually stayed there. The front desk was locked up. The property was pitch black and no one answered the emergency phone. I got there at 8:31 pm. Ridiculous. Have absolutely nothing good to say about this property.

The setting is very pretty. I would recommend a car or bikes here because the location is far from sites or surrounding towns. We had a very comfortable stay here. We checked in late and the employees were helpful with that.

Very close to Omaha Beach, the American cemetery and right on the doorstep of the Overlord Museum. The proprietor was amazingly helpful - shuffled our rooms to get us closer together and re-opened the kitchen to make us a late lunch. Good old-fashioned service of the highest order.

When we checked in the staff didnt speak English at all. We encountered three staff that were able to check us in, a female, an older man and a younger man possibly in his 40s. The man in his 40s acted like he didnt speak a word of English, but when we checked out, he did speak English. The owner was friendly and did speak English. We did have an issue with being double charged but that might have just been an oversight, but it still could've been prevented. We took care of that with a claim to our credit cards. Now on to the property: It was a clean area, rooms were clean, hotel was not quite easy to get to, they have a restaurant on site but it's closed on Fridays (who knows why). Wifi never worked at all so we just used our own cell data. There is a breakfast but I think they charged 10 euros a person and the breakfast was subpar with just some cereals and scrambled eggs. There is an ATM on site right by the front door of the hotel and it works, but they charge high fees to use it. To get the most out of your money, it's best to order some Euros from your own bank in the US. We did take a taxi to here from bayeux train station and we were charged between 40 and 58 euros. The good thing about this place is the location, it's incredible. It's about one mile from the American Cemetery and Omaha Beach, it's directly across the street from the Overlord Museum which is incredible itself. Overall I give it 3.5\5 as the location is incredible.

Lots of space! Parking by your room for easy loading and unloading. A small breakfast for a reasonable price. The property itself needs some repairing but the accommodations were fine. The Wifi does not work.

Good hotel, pity about the staff
The hotel is located on a roundabout that leads to the American war cemetery overlooking Omaha beach. It is also within walking distance of the massive new museum linked to the Omaha landings. The room was comfortable and the hotel has a large free car park. We were however very disappointed with the staff and service we received. Breakfast was a shambles and we only had breakfast on the first of our three day stay. I would state that the attention we received from the staff was one of the worst we have ever experienced, and certainly spoilt our stay.

Decent Hotel
There was wifi but it barely worked. The room was clean and there was plenty of space and plenty of closest space. There was poop in our toilet and a long hair on a towel but otherwise it was clean. They advertise a restaurant but it was only open 12-2. It is close to Omaha Beach, Overlord Museum, and the American Cemetery.

This property is very close to the tourism sites I wanted to see during my trip but the hotel is very isolated from all other things like restaurants, etc. The hotel restaurant posted hours open until 17:00 each day but on several days the hotel closed at 16:00 before I returned from the tours. To do activities around this hotel you must have a vehicle (rental or other) if you are to make the most of the location. Room was satisfactory but very simple.

The room was large and comfortable. No tub but a shower - tile floors. Quiet. Very convenient to all of the Normandy WWII sites, and right across the street from the Overlord Museum, which is a must see if you are interested in WWII history. We loved the area, felt TOTALLY safe, and would stay here again.

Nice place
This was a great place to stay if you're visiting Omaha Beach and the surrounding areas. It's very close to the American Cemetery as well as a short drive down the hill to the beach and other villages nearby. The check-in process was smooth, the staff friendly, and the rooms were neat and clean. Very nice and quiet . The breakfast was also very good. I'm only sorry we stayed there for a short time.
