Balladins Lyon Dardilly

For Americans, the analogy would be with Motel 6 (which might actually be cleaner). Quality should be better given price tag.

Sad realization to arrive and realize that the photos do not correspond to reality... dilapidated and poorly maintained hotel, questionable safety standards (open junction box), obvious lack of maintenance... Positive point: welcoming staff. The bedding is decent.

Very disappointed with the place. Not all channels are available on the TV. The room had not been vacuumed as it was dirty upon entering. The soundproofing is quite poor as you can hear the road and the air conditioning compressor. There was a family across from me, and no one from the reception went to tell them to be quieter, so it was unbearable until midnight. No outlet near the nightstands. Not much choice at breakfast and the pastries are dry. A few advantages like the location and the fact that the bathroom was fairly clean, as well as the reception from the person present at the front desk.
