This was our second time in M Maison Troyes and won't be our last.|Firstly, the location is lovely. Along a river and a short walk to the ancient centre. Perfect. It is tranquil and secluded.|The common areas are beautiful and well kept.|The rooms have everything you need. Ours was huge and luxurious. It was missing a safe, but it felt secure. Breakfast was good. They don't offer a cooked breakfast but it was still good.|The owners are very polite and you get the total immersion experience, i.e. they speak French to you! I personally liked this but I can imagine many people struggle. The owners will switch into English if it is important.|The one thing that threw me last time and this time is the check-in hours. It is between 17.30 - 19.30. This means that the gates are locked before this and you can neither park there nor store your baggage and go for a walk until 17.30. We had to leave our car outside with all our stuff inside which didn't feel very safe. This 2 hour window is very short and at about midnight we heard a car beeping aggressively to get in.|Maybe the owners could think about sending an email via Booking or Agoda upfront telling us this as I had truly forgotten. If they insist on 17.30 (and I have never heard of a check in time after 16.00) then maybe an upfront email explaining where we can park or even giving us the code to the car park so we don't have to worry about our stuff being in the car.|Otherwise, if you are aware of this, this place is perfect!
