Ibis Styles Bordeaux Saint Jean

Good place for weary traveller

Pros: Ibis Styles Bordeaux is extremely close to the rail station, and easy to find. Although it is clearly a budget hotel, I found the bright colors and decor charming. My room was quiet and comfortable, although, as others have noted, not large. Staff were all pleasant (and also kind and patient as regards my weak French). The included breakfast is exceptional, with a good espresso machine to use, a juice press, many pastries and breads, fresh fruit, and cold cuts and cheese, yoghurt, etc.

Cons: The bathroom seemed really too tiny, and a bit scruffy.
