Ibis Styles Poitiers Centre

10/10 Excellent
"We booked a Standard Double Room, 1 Double Bed with Sofa bed. The room was a unique version of that, set out on its own peninsula within the building, with no neighbouring rooms, and far from the elevator. Very quiet, and a very comfortable bed. Wi-fi not as quick as other Accor properties, but adequate for needs. Parking entrance is opposite side of the building from the lobby entrance, ad has a very narrow opening and a tight curved ramp down under the building. Tons of space once down the ramp, and the elevator is there too so no humping luggage up on stairs. Breakfast was okay, but not in the same league as at other hotels in France. Good enough though, and a great sleep. Would stay in that exact room again. Convient for walking everywhere downtown."
