| Pros: The hostel was great, amazing view, staff always nice and friendly (also to French not-speaking persons). Cons: little bit out of town (it would be useful to indicate on the website that if you arrive by train, you'll have to catch a bus) | ||

| Absolute quality. The manager was very friendly and helped me figure out the bus system. This hostel is one of a kind. The breakfast was great, and the facilities were very clean. Who can beat the location, either? | ||

| Beautiful situation on a lovely bit of the coast, about 30mins drive from St Malo. The staff were very helpful after I phoned to say my ferry would be very late. I did not arrive until approaching midnight but no problem. | ||
