Appotel Malraux

“The property manager was excellent. Very good communication and informative. She spoke very good English, this was great, as my French is in the learning process! The property is in an excellent location. About a 15 minute walk from the train station and in a very robust area with many neighborhood restaurants and shops. There is a Carrefour grocery store in this same area, about a 8 minute walk from the apartment, this store was very convenient for us. The building has an elevator. No carrying bags up and down stairs. The apartment was a 1 bedroom, 1 bath. It was extremely clean. Everything worked correctly in the apartment. There is no oven. There is a stove, small microwave, small refrigerator and a number of small appliances. There is a coffee brewer for all of you North and South Americans, just ensure you bring your own coffee and V style filters. I purchased some filters and left them there. Suggestions For Improvement: Entering the apartment, you feel, hmmm, not so excited. It is all painted or colored in drab white, and has high ceilings which are white. It needs some more modern paint colors to warm the place up and make it feel more inviting. It was small, which is ok, but it did not feel comfy and cozy. Just a little TLC would take care of this. There is no salt, pepper, tea bags, instant coffee. These are standard items for apartments and none were present. This would be an easy low cost add and I just do not understand why they do not include them as they are in most other apartments. It is not reasonable when renting an apart. for short term basis like this, you do not properly stock it with these items. In the family/dining room there is a small dining table and a twin bed. There is no other comfortable furniture to sit on other than the bed in the bedroom, which is where I was forced to go. Apparently the twin bed is in the place of a sofa or a couple of chairs, as a result it makes it difficult to relax, thus you go to the bed.”

“Really well located! In the City center, 5min to Place Plumereau and rue Colbert for great restaurant. 2 min from the Tram or bus to go everywhere in Tours. 15 min from the railway station. Cleaned, comfy and economic!”

“The apartment is in a very quiet and conevient location, well-equipped facility and amenity in the apartment, you can have what we need for staying in the apartment, great location for us to reach the major attractions, a lot of resturants and coffee, and super markets just about 5 to 10 minutes walk. the river of Loire is just in front of the apartment, we can walk along the river at anytime. The tram and bus stops are only a few minutes walking distance. Four big Frech styles windows with balconies make the apartment very brighten. The owner Pascale was very nice and helpful. I found I lost my mobile phone when I had left the apartment for the airport, I was very stressful, I tried to contact her, she was very helpful and found my mobile phone. I like to take this opportunity to thank you Pascale very much for offering your great help. Eventually I got my phone back and returned to my home happily.”

“Location is very good and parking is in front of the building( backside)”

“Located In a good position to visit Tours but also as a base for visiting castles in the area. Apartment was well equipped, all the tools available were working well.”
