2 pièces coup de cœur, balcon ensoleillé, 5 min à pied du sanctuaire

😊: Really comfortable and bright little apartment. Very close to the sanctuary. Great host who took great time to ensure my stay was comfortable and that access was easy. Fully equipped kitchen, towels, dressing gowns and slippers. Air conditioner. Lovely balcony to sit out on and watch the activity on the Boulevard de la Grotte. Would definitely stay again..

😊: Rather than going to hotel in Lourdes, we decided to rent a flat. This one was perfect for us. A 5 minute walk into the Grotto. All the restaurants, cafes, bakery & shops we used were within a 10 minute walk. All excellent choices. The flat itself was cosy and although basic, it had a few subtle 'home sweet home' touches from its owner Maud. Special mention to Maud - an exceptional remote host who assisted us right from the moment we arrived, helping us with restaurant & cafe suggestions, sorting out our first night dinner reservation and generally "being there" in the background each day. Excellent host. 😢: Nothing really. Our main challenge was not the host's fault 1. Our transfer driver on being given the address took us to the rear of the building (which is a separate buisiness). As we started to head around to the correct door entry, however that hotel manager (an older gent - with little English), came out & insistantly ushered us into one of his rooms to show us. We resolved the matter by calling Maud so she could explain his error. MORAL OF STORY... INSIST TO YOUR DRIVER TO TAKE YOU ONTO 44 BVRD DE LA GROTTO. TGE CORRECT ACCESS DOOR..IT HAS AN ATM MACHINE TO IT'S LEFT SIDE (As per Maud's instructions you receive just before you head to Lourdes 2. It's ideal for a couple of days in Lourdes. Although if staying longer, with no washing machine, it could be a bit of a challenge (however we did see a few self serve laundrette, all within 10 min walks, so in my mind it's not an issue).
