“A simple but pleasant stay. A good host and a nice way to meet other guests”

The hostel is in a converted medieval building in a quiet side street. The large communal lounge & kitchen is modern and comfortable. Julien the host offers meals some evenings- a nice way to meet other guests.There is secure bike storage in the garage. We were in the largest room - simple but pleasantly decorated. Julien was a friendly & helpful host. Clothes washing facilities available.

Beautiful modern facilities in a gorgeous historic building. Secure bicycle storage And ample breakfast

“Good all around: 5 stars”

Very friendly, welcoming host. All areas were clean, and bed comfortable. For a hostel, sitting area and kitchen were really good. Great location.

“The Best Hostel Ever. We extended our Stay”

As per our previous night review, our stay was superb. Our host, Julien, was friendly and endlessly helpful. The evening meals he cooked were beautiful and better than most expensive restaurants, but at hostel prices! Secure bike storage is available. The bedroom was really comfortable and the kitchen/dining/lounge area was inviting. This is an amazing historic house in a historic town. Julien, thank you for your hospitality and a lovely stay. See you again.

Everything! Loved it all. It was just beautiful. We had dinner at the hostel which was great value. Would highly recommend and definitely would return.

Nice building. Cosy.

“Great stay in a carismatic building”

We had a great stay here, hostel is located in an interesting old building with high walls, decor is nice. The bed was comfy and everything was clean. The host coocked us a great diner, the breakfast was ok. We would definetly stay here again! Also great value for money.

“Friendly and good value.”

The host was particularly helpful and friendly. He asked us at the very start if we would prefer to converse with him in French or English which was very welcome.

Charming old place. Well done.

“Large and historical mediæval home with an attentive host who genuinely cares about his guests’ and their comfort”

First of all the host is exceptional. He responded quickly to messages, and expressed concern when I was late for my check in (I had bike troubles). He had a menu waiting at the front door and prepared my dinner while I showered and unpacked. To walk into a gently lit kitchen & dining area and receive the smell of dinner cooking for you after cycling for 8 hours is amazing. Other guests were playing scrabble and relaxing on the lounge. For €5 he also packed my lunch for next days riding.

“Excellent evening meal and wine.”

Excellent evening meal and wine.

Nice guy, great dinner

“Chilled; felt like home.”

Gorgeous old building in the centre of La Réole. The rooms were really comfortable & clean. We had a double for us & a twin for the kids which were both in a self contained space with shower & toilet: perfect. The common space was really lovely & there were loads of books & games so we spent a relaxing afternoon & evening after a day cycling in the rain! Julien was very chilled & helpful. It was possible to get some laundry done and we used the very well equipped kitchen to cook dinner. It’s possible to buy drinks too. Beds were comfortable and we had a good night’s sleep. Self service breakfast was copious & convenient. All in all, we really enjoyed our stay at this hostel!

“Warm welcome after losing luggage. Reset my morale and energy to go on with planned trek!”

I arrived later than planned as my luggage did not show up on arrival. My host offered to drive me to a store the next day so I could buy replacement hiking clothing and kit! So welcoming!!

“Excellent hostel, location, friendliness”

The actual helpfulness of Julian, the location.

A really atmospheric building and a comfortable, clean bedroom with shared shower. The location is great, in an old part of the town, and there, are plenty of places to eat and drink nearby. We recommend the small brasserie "Y'a Une Sorciere Dans ma Bière". A simple shared breakfast, included in the price, gave us the chance to talk to other hostellers and set us up for the morning.
