La Maison Gustave

Beautiful little B&B in the heart of Narbonne - friendly host and traditional French breakfast each day. The place is handy yo all you need to see in this wonderful town. Next door to a fromagerie and across the rue from an old church - Highly recommended.

Great location on a quite side street. On arrival we buzzed and the owner came right away. We were just off a barge in the south of France so we had two large suitcases with handbags. We dragged our bags through the narrow door and looked. up a narrow staircase. Our hostess pointed upwards and I carried the first suitcase up to the first landing. I went back and grabbed the second bag. The first floor had the lobby desk. We checked in and our hostess said our room was on the third floor. I let out a great sigh and took the first suitcase up a narrow winding staircase, hit the second landing and pushed onward like a seaoned traveller to the third floor. The room was large and nice looking out on the beautiful Cathedral. I asked our hostess if I could leave the second bag on the first floor. There was no way I was lugging it up two flights of winding stairs. In the morning there was fresh rolls, and our fridge was stocked with juice, cheese, water and yogurt. I would give this B&B a qualified recommendation, for those who can walk up a lot of stairs and travels light. There is no help from staff or travel assistance as the owner only spoke limited English. The hostess did not offer to get anyone to help with the luggage. When we left the next morning I had to take the luggage back down, quite a challenge and we left. The owner was no where to be found. You get a code to exit and enter the front door.
