Sainte-Barbe-du-Laizon, Normandy hotel rooms at the Independent

"Good location "

"Large room with fridge, stove, microwave and cookware/dishes. Comfortable bed. Good breakfast. Laundry available - 9 Euros for wash/dry/detergent with large clean machines. Great stay. Only downside- could have used more pillows."

"Budget hotel so for the cost it is extremely good value. Would have liked a hand towel for the separate sink area, but just two bath towels provided for the wet room style toilet/shower. Continental style breakfast was good for the first two days, but on our last day (a Monday) there was very little on offer. The room was small but adequate and the bed was very comfortable. There is free WiFi, but unfortunately this went down half way through our 3night stay and was still down when we left. If...

"Very good hotel for an overnight stop for the ferry to Portsmouth, which is all we’ve done there. We’re probably make time in future to stay longer."

"staff was extremely friendly and helpful "

"If it's convenience to the train station and rental car offices you need, this could be the right place for you. It was easy to find and just a few doors down to all of the major car rental offices. It is practical and good for a one night stay. You can add a breakfast for a reasonable fee. The check-in host was fluent in both French and English."

"Excellent property! Ask for room 109. Didn’t know what to expect for 2 star property, but no complaints!"

"It is convenient to get there by car as it is close to the entrance of the highway. The staff are very kind and polite at the reception. They also spoke perfect English. I can't speak French at all but I was able to relax and enjoy my stay."
