Campanile Toulouse Purpan

We went to Toulouse for a dance festival, the only reason we booked this hotel was because of the proximity to the event. We arrived at around 4:00 pm to check-in and the girl at the reception whispered something like "the room is not ready, again", but she assigned us one (216) and also gave us two little bottles of water. The room was not the same one that appeared in the Booking photos but rather a similar one. The large towels and more toilet paper were missing, had to ask for these at the reception. Overall, the room was clean, the bed comfortable, friendly/helpful staff, a shopping center nearby. Breakfast ok, I appreciated the fresh bread.

Late in the evening we realized that the sink was leaking badly, unfortunately at that time nothing could be done. The next day we notified the reception and until we returned they had fixed it. This wasn't something new, staff most probably knew about the issue and it happened before because the pipe under the sink had traces of glue or paste (it should have been replaced). Another drawback was the bad smell from the toilet, thank goodness that during the day we spent little time in the hotel room. The hair dryer was very old/used. There is no refrigerator (minibar) in the room, which in hot weather is very unpleasant, the water heats up and cannot be drunk. Breakfast is not very varied, more sweet than savory, we stayed for 4 nights and every day it was the same. The only savory things were: two types of ham, one type of cheese, butter and boiled eggs, and yogurt which was sour. The rest was pure sweet: pastries (croissants, pain au chocolat), pancakes, crepes, different jams, fruit salad (apple, pineapple, grapes), cereal, sweet breads, boxed pear and orange juices. For the future it would be good if they also had fresh vegetables (tomatoes, bell pepper, cucumber, lettuce), more variety of cheese and salty pastry also. Something I didn't like was the breakfast time, which was until 9:30 am. Many of the guests were participants in the dance festival, which was intensive: dance courses during the day, parties at night, which accumulated fatigue. On Sunday a lot of people came down to have breakfast after 9:30 and nothing happened, however on Monday even though there were people in the room having breakfast, the staff started to pick up everything very quickly just a few minutes after 9:30. The girl who was picking up did it slowly so that people could still help themselves, but the manager came and started taking everything away quickly as if he wanted us to leave right away. This was very unpleasant.
