    We were surprised about the sharing of the lounge / dining area , Which could have been a little uncomfortable with other guests. but that could have been our mistake and didn’t realise this about the booking. However we were lucky as there were no guests in the upstairs suite .

    bedrooms were lovely and location was great for a quick overnight stay before going onto the channel tunnel

    Expectation and amenities didn't meet reality
    • Leisure trip
    • Couple
    • Duplex Room "L'Etable"
    • Stayed 1 night

    Whilst it was a duplex, the area containing the bed, table and chairs and a set of draws was bijou and we had nowhere to place our case without falling over it. We could have put it downstairs but that would mean trooping up and down repeatedly to get things. Expectations were high due to the long list of amenities attributed to our room. In reality the long list of amenities needs a reality check. For example, there is a small TV but it could not really meet the claimed to be a "flat screen tv"; there was a mini mini bar containing just 2 bottles of beer but there was no separate fridge - and the mini bar was too small to claim to be a usable fridge. The toiletries provided amounted to one bottle of shower/hair/hand gel that had to be shared between the bath, shower and sink. We didn't require it but I noted too that the amenities list included a fold up bed. Where this was or how in such a small space it could have been expanded is not clear. There were three available WiFi networks showing on our phones, but they were very intermittent and weak and none of then accepted the code provided anyway. One other annoying point was the claim of satellite channels. The only channels available were French which I don't mind, but as with many other things the expectation was much more!

    We chose to stay here because location suited us being close to Calais and on our way home. It was a quiet and seemingly secure location which we also look for. The bed was comfortable and we slept well. The owner was welcoming and accommodating with request for an early breakfast which we appreciated.

    A personal issue..the lighting was too cold white bulbs, needs to be change to warm light. Currently it was brutally harsh…this would completely change the ambiance of the room. So easy to do !!

    Excellent stopover on way to Le Shuttle ..lovely room with balcony with a fabulous view. Breakfast delivered to room was very pleasant..

    Everything was just as it should have been.

    The whole experience at Alex Factory was nothing short of excellent. Late on a dark, stormy and windy evening where we were stranded on the Opal Coast due to some red tape with our dogs, we opted to go out of Calais and we found Alex Factory. Whilst you wouldn't pick it for its rather quirky name, the host was excellent; attentive, invisible and very welcoming. Nothing was too much trouble. We were welcomed and we were allowed to play it our way - we had a motorbike on a trailer which needed to be reloaded and he was happy for us to do that. In the morning, a delicious breakfast appeared like magic in the dining room - and the host popped in to see how we were doing. We will definitaly go and stay there again - next time under less adverse circumstances I hope.
