Ibis Lyon Nord

First stopover hotel after long drive. Hotel has small pool which is great for kids to enjoy & cool off in. Good breakfast & restaurant with outside dining. Two interconnecting rooms were allocated so great amount of space. Good aircon & clean rooms. Would stay again.

We stayed here on our way to La Grande-Motte and the only reasons we chose it were that it was close to a Tesla Supercharger and you usually can't go wrong with an Ibis, they are usually simple & clean. The Tesla Supercharger is indeed close-by (just across the road at another hotel) so that was a plus but for us this Ibis did not live up to our usual expectations. The place was simple, sure, but the rooms were really small, you could hardly walk around the bed. As for the cleanliness, one room was OK but the other room had a smelly airco which made the room smell damp and of fungus. As we planned to leave for our final destination as early as possible we had booked the rooms with breakfast but alas... breakfast is definitely not worth the extra price. The trays were dirty, the selection of food was not as shown on their photos on the booking site and the staff wasn't really helpful either. I decided to skip breakfast after having taken a bite of a croissant that was way too fat and a sip of so-so coffee. The rest of the family tried but eventually we decided to nip over to Paul's across the motorway for some decent food and coffee.
