This hotel was in a very old bldg on Mont Sainte Michele Island which is very appealing if you're into that, which if you're visiting MSM, you probably are. As expected, the room was very tiny and so was the bathroom. It was odd, as the bed was comfy, the bathroom modern, the carpet and walls seem to have been recently renovated but ...the windows were single pane glass as they used to be in the past for people who could afford windows. Our room had some ripped blinds on the windows that had black mold on them and the windows had a lot of condensation on them in the morning when we woke up. Hence the mold. Neither of us has a mold allergy so we were ok but I would advise anyone with any mold sensitivity to think twice about staying here or really anyplace on the island as I suspect they all have that issue to a greater or lesser degree. The bldg itself seems to be under renovation which is great as it could use it, but the construction crew doesn't seem to see a need to clean up after themselves. Be prepared to climb stairs to get to your room, not good for people with mobility issues. The good part is you can feel the history in the room and indeed in the building, which to my mind is very cool. I feel like I got to be a tiny part of it and was able to reflect on the lives of the people who must have lived and worked there in the past. MSM is so magical that the bad stuff doesn't matter all that much. Would recommend with those caveats.
