The unit is recently remodeled in an older building. It was a little further than we wanted to walk after a night in Cherbourg. It's in a very quiet part of the town and very close to some small shops for coffee, snacks, etc. The host was incredibly responsive to some minor issues that popped up. It is located next to a church that woke us one morning with its bells at about 8:00 AM, which just happened to be the morning after we stayed out late in downtown Cherbourg. They were not an issue at any other time. Overall a wonderful place to stay and I would stay there again.
