Grand Hotel du Calvados - Opera

Good location near transport and attractions. Rooms are small and a bit old but clean. The lift is very small, fits about 2 people with luggage.

MUCH WORSE than the photos show. Very bare and grimy. But good location.

Update from our second stay: When we returned for another night, we were finally placed in the correct building with an elevator. However, even this time, the room situation was handled poorly. We had booked a **Double Room**, but were initially given a **Twin Room** instead. When we questioned this, the staff claimed that the hotel was "fully booked" again and implied that nothing could be done. We had to strongly insist and refuse the incorrect room. Only then did they finally provide us with the **Double Room we originally paid for**. This shows a repeated pattern: if guests do not complain and do not firmly stand their ground, they are likely to be given a room that does not match their reservation. Very frustrating experience. Guests should be extremely careful and double-check everything.

Great hotel for budget travelers, the room is quiet small but if you are only looking for a place to sleep its great. Metro station literary located within 1 minute walk . Nearby shops are amazing. Staff are really friendly and nice I genuinely appreciate them all especially the blonde moroccan guy .

Plus: Location location location. You could pretty much walk everywhere n anywhere Heating available in room Minus: Expensive for a small single room like that Shower curtain has mould, and smell of damp cloth Some room for improvement with air circulation, and humidity. After taking shower, the room feel very densed and humid. And the humidity is all trapped in the bed / quilt. Uncomfortable to sleep in. The lift. It is old and classic. One would have to open the door when it arrives. You either love it or hate it. I think I was somewhat misled by the picture on profile of the twin room and room with balcony before making booking. See photos attached for actual view for single room. No room for negotiation for late check out even if I am willing to pay ( or I didn't get to expressed I am willing to pay. Check out time is 12, and my flight was 9.35pm. to be fair And provide the complete picture, the service desk did offer luggage storage option) The front door is relatively narrow you could easily walk pass and miss it. All in it is a simple but very old hotel with great location. You either love it or hate it.
