La Tour Napoléonienne et son Jacuzzi - One-Bedroom Apartment

😊: Fantastic outdoor garden with places to eat and drink. 😢: Probably a little smaller than I anticipated but still beautiful and everything you need for a great stay in Caen.

😢: The host is running a scam. The place was dirty and full of flies when we arrived. We left it tidy and in good condition and 4 days after our very short stay the host went in and trashed the place and is threatening to report us unless we send money. In the photos they also do not show some of the stuff he is claiming. On top of this I've received several threatening messages. Be careful! We have reported it. A real shame that this has happened as I have always had a lovely experience through booking.com and their customer service has been excellent and assured me it is false claim. Also the allocated parking was not onsite it is street parking..

😊: Cozy hideaway in the middle of Caen - would definitely recommend! Right across from the castle and a very short walk away from the old part of town, it's perfectly located. You can tell by the attention to detail that the owner put a lot of thought and work into renovating it. The terrace and the living room with the big sliding doors give it an outdoorsy vibe, and it felt like having a little oasis in the middle of the city. François is a very nice and attentive host and reacted within minutes if I had a question. When the foam in the Jacuzzi tried to swallow me, he did his best to tame it, but it had a life of its own :). Pro tip: There is a lot of available parking space close to the apartment, but the closest ones are only affordable for 2,5 hours (after that the rate goes up steeply, to 33 Euro for the day if I remember correctly). Driving just 2 minutes further secured me a spot where parking for 5 hours was just 6.5 Euro..
