La Maison Blatin - 2 chambres & parking

😊: The location for the town centre was good.. 😢: Over priced, tired and ridiculously difficult to gain access. Corner bath with wall mounted shower head, no curtain so it’s not possible to shower. Wrong toilet seat, small and lose. No spare loo roll. Toilet door doesn’t close from the outside so odours in the hall. Worn out furniture Dark and dingy, surrounded by concrete walls and tower blocks. No nice views from the windows Ridiculous check in. Park outside locked gates in a tow away zone, my wife sat with the motor to make sure we weren’t towed. You have to walk to another address to a key box, get the key and clicker and walk back to the car. 5 to 6 minutes at a brisk walk. The clicker opens the gates, grab your luggage and take it down the tunnel to the apartment, open and drop the luggage. The car and wife are still in the tow away zone. Grab the remote for the garage, drive round the corner, find the garage and drive up three levels, very tight ramps to your parking spot. Find your way out and walk back to the apartment. Not exactly ideal after driving 200 plus miles and navigating a complex one way system..

😊: Good location for exploring Clermont Ferrand despite the city road works which you need to negotiate.. 😢: Need to pick up the keys nearby the property and then navigate to the property and then the parking space which entailed lots of careful reading of instructions and navigating the road works around the property. Would have been less stressful if the key box was at the property..
