Guest reviews for L'Insolite
"Unique property in the heart of Bourges mediaeval town and a stones throw from the cathedral. Very easy parking minutes from the property and good cafes and restaurants nearby. We were travelling through France on our way back to the UK but are sure to come back and spend some time here in the future. Such a pleasant change from hotel rooms."
"If we had "what 3 words" location it would have helped us to find the entrance a bit quicker. I think that it would be ///bands.axed.mainland but might need checking in case I've got that wrong."
"We stayed 2 days in this amazing place! Two things stand out: - The location. It is basically in front of the cathedral (well, via a 3 min walk), very central and what a beautiful old town - The architecture / design: it is very full of character, with a very spacious ceiling, old beams, a mezzanine, lots of stairs, etc.. it also has a neat little terrace for enjoying some fresh air. we couldn't park in front, but in the hotel de ville parking (paid), that was 5-10 min walk. It is really perfect for exploring the old town for a couple of days."
"A few things to note: - There are 6 beds but only 2 of them are separate from the living room (2 are on the couch, and another 2 are on an open mezzanine which is the same room as the living room). - The beds on the mezzanine were creaking quite a lot. - The bathroom didn't have any ventilation and it was hard to remove humidity after showering."
"Really fab price and location. Close to great parking near the cathedral. Quirky property with plenty of facilities."
"We loved it but it is split across a number of levels if folk have mobility issues. But it all adds to the charm, as far as we’re concerned."
"Great location and very straight forward arrival. Comfortable furniture and well presented apartment. Lots of information on what to do in and around Bourges."
"While the apartment was on the ground floor, internally there were a number of steps up and down between living spaces/bedrooms, which might be hard for older people or children to navigate."
"En plein centre ville, gîte dans une impasse au calme. Bien décoré avec beaucoup de goût."
"Peut être mettre des rideaux opaques à certaines fenêtres et la mezzanine."
"L'emplacement du gîte est incroyable pour visiter la ville"
"Aucun."
"Situé en plein centre-ville et malgré tout en retrait de la circulation."
"Le lit de la mezzanine grince..."
"emplacement super, au pied de la cathédrale . Logement très joli et fonctionnel (malgré le dégradé des niveaux qui n'est pas gênant du tout) . et jolie décoration de Noel faite avec goût. rien ne manquait !!!"
"devant les degrés en dessous de zéro à l'extérieur, le logement aurait supporté un peu plus de chaleur . mais devant la hauteur de la pièce de vie, il est en effet difficile d'avoir mieux. nous avons mis la grosse étole autour du cou et le tour était joué!"
"Magnifique appartement. Belle déco. Très bien situé."
"Aucun."
"Excellent emplacement en plein centre ville, top pour visiter."
"Aucun."
