Anonymous Leisure traveller 60-69 years old 48% Awfull 1 month(s) ago Dear Ms. Meyer,
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback with us.
We are truly sorry to hear about your experience and understand how unpleasant and concerning the presence of suspected bedbugs can be.
We would, however, like to clarify that the presence of bedbugs is not related to a lack of hygiene or cleanliness. Bedbugs can be brought into any hotel by guests through luggage, clothing or personal belongings, regardless of the level of cleanliness or hygiene of the establishment.
As soon as the issue was brought to our attention at check-out, our team took the matter seriously and followed the appropriate procedure. Our reception team apologized to you and looked into the possibility of offering a gesture.
The room was immediately inspected by our team and treated by our pest control partner that same morning. No further evidence of bedbugs was found during their inspection, and the room will only be returned to sale once the necessary treatment and checks have been completed.
We regret that you felt your concerns were not sufficiently addressed and that our response did not meet your expectations. Your feedback has nevertheless been taken seriously and shared with the relevant teams.
We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience caused and hope to have the opportunity to provide you with a much more positive experience in the future.
Kind regards,
The Hôtel des Marins team

    I found the room very comfortable, however, things can always be improved. I would have preferred a slightly smaller bed, so there was more room around it. And I would rather have had a chest of drawers next to the wardrobe, instead of the small cupboard.

    More fresh fruit would have been welcome - perhaps some slices of melon, or a simple fresh fruit salad (as opposed to the tinned fruit salad on offer). I also always like a nice dark bread, perhaps a spelt, rye or buckwheat.

    We broke some glass in the bathroom floor and there was blood from our cut. We left a note to vacuum the next day, which they did, though missed a few pieces of glass. But they did not wash the floor. Besides that it was very clean.

Anonymous Leisure traveller 50-59 years old 75% Please see my comments above. It was a clean and nice place, centrally located but I wish we didn't have the 'hiccups' of the parking and the cleaning charges. I ended up cleaning or 1 year(s) ago Dear Customer,
Thank you for sharing your experience at Appartement des Marins. We are truly sorry to hear that your overall impression was mixed, particularly due to the parking situation and the cleaning fee.
All relevant information is listed on Booking.com, although we are unfortunately unable to modify the way it is displayed due to their automatic and standardized layout.
Regarding parking, we do offer on-site spaces, but they are limited in number and size due to the property’s layout and co-ownership regulations. We encourage guests to consider nearby public parking options, which are also indicated on Booking.com.
As for the cleaning fee, it was included in your reservation and is clearly itemized in the breakdown of charges you received through Booking.com, it is not a hidden fee. The leaflet in the room provides general information for all guests staying in our apartments. Since not every guest books a cleaning service, we kindly request that the accommodation be left clean upon departure. We regret that this was not clearly reiterated upon your arrival. However, please be assured that we would never charge an additional fee for a service you have already paid for.
We sincerely hope to have the opportunity to welcome you again in the near future, so that we may leave you with a more positive impression.
Best regards,
The Hôtel des Marins Team

    Employees were polite and helpful but it was the first time in my life where I found out from the information in the room that on my way out I'd have to do cleaning or I'd be charged more. This policy of the hotel is a first (and I travel the world for work and pleasure, never seen this before). Then I was told that with booking.com this was included, but this was nowhere mentioned in the flat itself. Also, while it was advertised as a place with parking, we were then told upon arrival that the parking is not for big cars- which should have been made clearer.
