Novotel la Rochelle Centre

We stayed at novotel in Rouen and thought this would be just as good. It was not. The hotel is situated in the centre close to a park. Very nice sorroundings. Spacious parking, but impossible to charge electric cars due to the fact that the charching station did not work for our country. The rooms are terrible. Carpets on floor and the toilet is in a separate room so you have to touch two doors before you can wash you hands. All the doors in the tiny room is just ridiculous. The view was catastrophical. Seems there were only families with small children or elderly people staying here. The sofabed for our teenager was too small and uncomfortable. The beds have bed pads on them, which is NOT comfortable and unneccesary for a family with a teenager. The soap was not refilled during our stay and the last day there was no hand soap. The shower pressure was weak. The pool area was of such poor quality our swimmer of a son, refused to go in the water. We ordered a drink in the bar, and it was all alcohol and undrinkable. Cannot recommend this hotel.
