Hôtel ibis Brest Centre
"Good central location, very friendly staff. Very good breakfast buffet for this price category. We stayed 5 nights. On the more negative side: the rooms are small (but acceptable for a *** hotel), the mattresses for the single beds were OK but could be better. Garage descent a bit tight."
