“Unfortunately, poor air quality made the stay uncomfortable and impacted my health”

I had high hopes for this stay, but unfortunately the air quality in the room was very poor. There seemed to be no proper ventilation (no air circulation system or AC), and simply opening the window wasn’t enough. After a few days, I developed a persistent cough, which I believe was an asthmatic reaction triggered by the stagnant air. I’ve only experienced this in places with bad air circulation before. There was a fan next to the bed, which I tried to use to improve airflow, but it hadn’t been cleaned in a long time - it blew visible dust into the room, especially near the bed area, which only made things worse. Another challenge was that all the information provided - both in the welcome email and the leaflet in the room - was only in French. Since this seems to be a destination visited by many international travelers, offering the key information in English as well would make the experience more welcoming and much easier for non-French-speaking guests. I would recommend a thorough cleaning of the fan, improved room ventilation, and multilingual guest information to better accommodate international visitors.

“It was ok”

Creative

A very cute and quirky apartment incredibly close to the train station. It took a bit to figure out the sink and rain water system but we loved the geekyness :D the bed is narrow (1.4m) but comfy. Wifi is super (not sure why the ratings are so low)

Most original appartement It's tiny, but everything you need is there . Very close to the station.

Very nifty, creative

“Served a purpose.”

It was very close to the city centre and all local amenities.

“Great for a night or two”

The themed room was really cool

That was exactly the kind of room I was looking to stay in Nantes! Pretty, well located.

Super location, few steps from the castle and the city center. The neighborhood is very quiet. Overall decoration is ok, need maintenance and improvments thou :( Shower is super.

“only for very fit (and short) guest”

Do read reviews before booking! You need to climb a steep ladder up to a (short) bed. This was made very clear in the confirmation mail, and I'm sure also on the place's own website. The pitch in Booking.com is however unclear on this, and I'm not alone in making the mistake. There are a lot of pictures but they are hard to decipher. The place looks stunning, I really like the effort put into it - but it's not for everyone. I would give half points, 5 start for the effort and blame myself for not reading enough of the reviews. However, the unkind come-back to the comment from a 76 years old disappointed lady took away another star.
