Auberge des Îles du Bic

Inn with an incredible rustic character, in a little corner of Rimouski full of history. The welcome was warm... but it all ended there... We were told about the possibility of taking a spa, but to notify the reception to avoid the crowds and also to give us a towel. We came back from our dinner, a little before 9:00 p.m. and there was no one at the reception. A poster is affixed in the front door to indicate the telephone number to reach them, but no one answers… Very rustic hostel, with all the lack of soundproofing and adjus**ents that entails, but a minimum is required to provide a great customer experience. Every time the front door to the bedroom hallway opens, our bedroom door slams. The window curtains are not opaque and there are no blinds to compensate for this. At the shower level, it's very complex... clawfoot bath with unsuitable curtain and whose opening is found right at the level of the shower jet, so the water tries to get out of the shower all the time . In addition, the water stays in the bath, so I took my shower in 2 inches of water. Sleeping at the hostel is my worst experience ever and normally I sleep very well on just about any surface. And I have made hostels and hotels out of them in my life! The spring mattress was completely finished. Back pain all night. Tucks to one side, tumbles to the other in a bed that squeaks way too much for the price paid. Result, 4h37 of sleep. Still good, I expected worse. Lunch served as a hot and cold buffet… How can I say other than really very ordinary. In conclusion, first and last experience at this place that could use a lot of love and a good chef in the kitchen.

We had the "social" room and really liked the charm of this old building. Fridge and coffee machine in the room. No air conditioning. Obviously the floors creak a bit. The train passed once during the night (but why does it have to whistle????) Excellent, very complete buffet breakfast and a warm welcome. The wifi is sluggish.

Hotel very well located for visiting the Bic national park, but close to the railway (luckily little traffic, and none at night), and a very busy road. The “sun setting” apar**ent is comfortable, but rather dilapidated; some windows insulate very poorly from outside noise. The breakfast is excellent value for money, and the welcome is top notch.

My partner and I slept one night in the cosmos room on September 4. Of the 3 sofas, 2 were broken, and the third was very uncomfortable, they are old antiques that have not been refurbished. We paid $177 for this reservation. For that price everything should have been adequate and comfortable. We told the hostel owner about it and he didn't even apologize. Unconcerned with customer satisfaction.

Le seul point négatif, c’est qu’il n’y a pas d’air climatisé dans la chambre mais ils nous ont prêté des ventilateurs!
