The pluses: The apartment hotel is very well located, not far from the train station and opposite a tram stop, as well as plenty of fast food options along the avenue and even downstairs if you get peckish. A Carrefour supermarket is also at the end of the street, a 3-minute walk away. Reservations are made through the website, not by text message; we received an access code to enter the building and the room. There's no reception, but everything is well designed for a pleasant stay. An elevator is also available for accessing the upper floors. Coffee and tea are provided in the room. A dining area and kitchenette are also available so you can make yourself at home. Wi-Fi and a TV are available. The microwave and stovetop are functional.
We slept very well because the bed was comfortable and there was no noise from outside, even though the street is a busy main avenue. A pleasant smell emanated from the room, and the ventilation was on when we arrived, which was also very welcome given the rising weather lately.
Something to improve: a dish towel in the kitchen sink would be helpful for drying dishes directly instead of waiting for them to dry before putting them away.
The person responsible for cleaning before our arrival should have checked the provided dishes, pots, and pans, which were still covered in oil, so we had to scrub everything again. The provided dustpan was still covered in hair from a previous tenant. In short, not great. And finally, when we opened the bed, there was a stain on the left edge of the sheet, so we put down a bath towel to ensure a peaceful night's sleep.
This isn't our first time staying at this aparthotel in Le Havre (97), but it's the first time we've encountered many small inconveniences and hygiene issues. And oversights.
