We stayed at the Citadines Antigone from 25-31 August, with the room booked through the conference accomodation service at the Corum in Montpellier. The 1 bedroom apartment was pretty good, though a little noisy when the balcony door was open because it was at the front of the property on a main road.
The kitchen was very well equipped, a pleasant surprise compared to most apartment hotels. The lounge was small but very comfortable with the bonus of a small stereo to play CDs or the radio.
The bedroom was the huge dissapointment. Our "queen" bed was actually two singles pushed together. I have experienced this in hotels before, but in this case each bed was made up separately with the sheets and blankets tucked in tightly along the middle of the bed. It made it impossible to sleep together without untucking all the sheets and lying in the middle of the bed was out, as there were 2 hard bed frames there. I think this is very poor for 130 Euro/night.
We also had to put our bags in the loungeroom as there was no floor space in the bedroom for accessing a suitcase. There was just enough room to walk around the bed.
I found the day staff were very unhelpful. I was presented with a bill to pay upon registering and the rates were not very well explained. By contrast the night staff were very helpful with my queries.
I had a lot of trouble obtaining a refund for the breakfast and taxes for the 3 nights when I was the only person in the apartment I was told I could only get the 1.01Euro tax back and did I really want this since it was only 1 Euro? The conference accomodation people assured me I was entitled to the refund so I had to ask several staff members and for a manager before I could get the refunded. This information was then not conveyed to the desk staff when I went to check out, further complicating matters.
Nice apartment, poor beds, desk staff could try harder to help.
