B&B Hôtel Lyon Aéroport Saint-Quentin-Fallavier

This is located in an industrial area. So on the weekend it is fenced so if you did not book directly with the hotel you don’t have the proper reservation number required to open the gate. There’s a button to click on to get some help that is not working. So I ended up calling them and from that point all was good. The place is very clean and the room pretty small. The only reason to stay there is that it is cheap and close to the airport.

Excellent place to stay just to be close to the airport. It's nothing fancy or large, but air conditioning was great, bed was good, shower was wonderful. We would have liked to be able to get ice, but that's the only negative for a very inexpensive hotel.

I arrived after the gate closed. I tried to register through the kiosk outside but couldn’t. The reservation number did not work and neither did my name. I called the number listed on the kiosk for help , but it was just a recording in French only. I called Hotels.com and they didn’t do anything snd told me to call another number that was Expedia dealing with air bookings. Luckily another guest arrived and I followed in. It turned out the envelope with my key card had my name mis spelled so I couldn’t register through the kiosk. Really not happy! Wasted close to an hour and I had to get up really early for a flight. Should not had happened!

The hotel is inside a gated industrial park. There is an atm like machine for you to check in that would open the gate, however the machine wouldn’t take any of the three major credit cards I tried, and the phone number posted by the machine for help was no longer in service. After about 29 minutes I tried another number in small print and was given the code to open the slowest gate in history. The hotel was nice enough with pleasant folk working there, however the only food or drink available was from a vending machine that ate your cash. There were four other people trying to use it that lost their money. I tried not knowing this at the time and lost 4 euros. After asking the lady at the front desk I was informed she couldn’t help so I informed her she should maybe put a sign up so nobody else lost cash might be a good idea. She did not. The room was small and clean yet pleasant with a comfy bed. The shower was nice and modern but was exceptionally temperamental regarding temperatures. I burnt the hell out of my back after a couple minutes of warm water. It fluctuated randomly, be careful! The last item I had issue with wasn’t really the hotel, but I picked a place close to airport that was affordable. I think I paid about $30, eel, a 15 minute cab ride was 35 euros, about $45, there are nonother options if you don’t have a car. There is a decent restaurant back out the gate and about a quarter mile walk away.

Late night checkin via the automated service is impossible... had to call the emergency number and that was still a drama. Not worth the 40 euro cab journey from the airport.

Very difficult to find on satnav, but generally rooms are quiet with plenty of parking
