Appart’hôtel Odalys City - Nantes Cité des congrès
Very good hotel for the very good price. Lovely high ceilings and windows and all the things you need, and a comfortable bed. However no aircon which was unfortunate on the days we went, although there was a small fan. Good location, very easy to walk everywhere.
