La Mère Poulard

Amazing location and opportunity to explore Mt St Michel in peace and quiet.

We expected the room and bathroom to be small, which they were, so no surprises there. The room was very warm once we closed the windows, though, and there was no air conditioning so we had trouble sleeping. We could've left the windows open, but given that the hotel is right at the entrance of the Mont, it's quite loud outside. Breakfast was chaotic and there was a very loud fire alarm going on for a very long time in the breakfast room, which the staff did nothing to stop. It's an average place to stay for one night, but I wouldn't go back.

The location was pretty cool.

Disappointed with our room! We chose a room with the sea view from the photos on the Hotels.com website when choosing the room. These are not the photos of our room though. There is a view of a brick wall not the sea, through the other window you can see part of the terrace that is badly maintained and has a bad smell when opening the window. Terrible sewerage smell in our bathroom, which we had let them know on the first day, but nothing could be done. There are stains throughout on the carpet and chair. Definitely lack of maintenance in these rooms. Understanding it is old, but not well maintained. Other rooms are well maintained and look lovely. We are informed there were no other rooms available for our stay unfortunately. No option to change rooms. The Hotel said it is a booking problem, but the cleanliness is a hotel problem.

Excellent location, with a view that is close to unbeatable. Had to wait about 40 minutes after check-in as the room was not quite ready yet (they were very busy that day). Otherwise, we had a really great room, and experience!
