| Visited for one night with my sister. We loved Beaugency, the town is so quaint and authentic. The hostel was very comfortable and since it was our first ever hostel stay we are at this point impressed! | ||

| a lovely place to stay with children. good kitchen facilities made self catering easy. the location was quiet but in attractive suburban area looking out into fields. | ||

| 2 (of 5) mattresses in the room where like a 100 years old and totally worn out. we literally lay on the springs!
the wallpapers partially hang from the walls.
breakfast-bread was not fresh at all...
sorry - but this is not what you'd expect! | ||

| Kitchen could be cleaner and better with basic cloths and pots but overall it was usable. As a family we had excellent stay and will return. | ||

| The girl who works on reception was very pleasant and helpful. The breakfast was good. The location of this hostel is probably what deters most from staying here, as it was quite quiet when I stayed for 2 nights. It's within 20-30 minutes walking distance from Beaugency itself, but this wasn't a problem for me. Beaugency itself is a wonderfully quaint French town with hardly any tourists and lots of history. Coming straight from Paris to here, it was wonderful to be somewhere less hectic! | ||

| I absolutely loved my stay at Beaugency! The staff were so kind and helpful, the atmosphere really relaxed and welcoming-very rural and pleasant - plenty of space and even a cheveurie next door!
I did find the long walk to and from town quite tiring and wished there had been a local bus, as I had no transport. For a taste of the real France, I cant think of a better place to be. | ||

| Aan de rand van een feeëriek stadje. Vriendelijk personeel, mooi tuintje achteraan. Rustig gelegen. | ||
