Excellent value, but tired.
This is a budget hotel, so don't expect the Ritz. But the room was clean, the bed comfortable, and it has secure parking. We easily walked into the city centre for dinner. Next to the bus and train station.

Nice but tatty
Check-in was easy but nobody there before 5 pm so no point being early. Security was good checking staff very helpful and friendly. Place needs a good clean though and does smell of damp. Continental breakfast what you would expect for the price.

I know it was cheap as we needed a stopover before catching the ferry. The place looks like its about to fall down. Another guest was walking in as we arrived and said it was worse still on the inside. We walked into the reception and walked back out before even checking in. It looks like a hotel used by the govenment for the homeless.

Adrian Tate's review
I had been camping which was awful. Managed to get a room at the last minute which was a real relief. Staff were very kind to me ,and the room was comfortable with everything a motorcyclist could ask for. Will use Hotel Heco when I return 👍

On bike trip ready to take the ferry to Dover.
I wish there had been a bike shed. Although fairly small there was room for them. I wish we had been on the ground floor. A great value for a great location - close to city gardens and the spectacular Hotel de Ville.

You see a hotel picture of a church on the booking page, the hotel is not the church but nearby a old terrible building. Verry noisy , the bathroom is old and a lot of things are broken. The info from ebookers.ie is not correct.

The service mindedness at Première was outstanding. I felt very welcome and taken care off. This was especially nice as I had to spend a few extra days after my motorcycle had broken down. In the end I managed to get it fixed and had the best stay in this nace place!

Paid for triple room and only got a double as I was with my 13 yr old boy he was not amused and slept on floor. The receptionist didn't seem to care just said you have enough beds for 2 people I did explain i paid for a triple, he didn't care. Shower was awfull just span on the wall as fitting loose shower curtain useless and flooded the room. Sheets had stains on them and what looked like cigarette burn on the duvet cover. Bins overflowing outside the front doors

Shabby, run down hotel that looked more like a secure psychiatric unit. Black mould in the shower, broken fittings, what looked like cigarette burns on the bed-spread.
