STAY IN CANNES LA BOCCA
Gentleman at the reception, when I checked-in, was friendly and communicative. After having my flight delayed and eventually cancelled, then had to take a late night flight, of which I arrived after check-in hours, the hotel managed to send me codes to get enter the building and get the key to my room, which I greatly appreciated. Thanks to the customer service of Hotels.com / Expedia. I was rather disappointed with old dirty paint marks in the hallway and the inside the elevator. Not sure why this has not been cleaned up after a long time. I have seen photos of other customers who stayed of white paint, but now it had turned to brownish colour and the smell was terrible. Thankfully, my room was spacious and clean. Bed was comfortable. Though curtains were not so clean. Internet and heating worked perfectly. Was good to have a fridge and a kitchenette. I was surprised when asked to pay a deposit of 200 Euros, which was not mentioned in my booking confirmation, which mentioned that everything was paid for and all I had to pay at the property was the City Tax. Strangely, I stayed at this same place in May and I was not asked to pay a deposit. I wish these kind of rules should be clearly written out in the property's description and confirmation. Nonetheless, the place is close to many shops, easily accessible by train and bus. The bus stop is a few steps from the building and the train station less than 10 minutes walk. The sea and the beach is within walking distance.

Disgusting
It’s cruel even for animals. It’s just appalling. I couldn’t stay 2 minutes in the room. I’m still waiting to be reimbursed by hotels. Com

La Bocca Resid is a good place to stay close to Cannes. Train station was nearby, bus stop outside, cheap dining options, local market, pastry shop. I felt safe in the area. It was a small bus ride from Midi beach.

Room was not super clean, elevator unusable for a day due to huge paint spill (smelt like paint thinner for a while afterwards), bad communication and strange smell in room throughout stay. However, room was very close to beach and in walkable and fun area. Unfortunately, our room did not have a balcony and the windows let in lots of noise. No AC, very hot.

Never stay there
There was piss in the stairwell, there was an exploded can of paint in the elevator. It was so far from downtown and so sketchy and they wouldn’t let us cancel room, and nobody was there to help with anything or to check out. We were so sketched out and disgusted.

Scam: Do Not Come Here if You Will Check In Late
The hotel told me via phone they would make arrangements for me to check in late by leaving a code - emailed to me on the day I would arrive. It got to the day and I received no code. I also tried phoning that day but over an hour worth of calls and no answer. And don’t bother with emails as they never respond. Consequently, I had to then book another hotel to stay for the night costing me an extra £100. On arrival the next day at check in, it took over an hour as (although I was not informed by them why - a French girl also waiting for reception informed me they had given my room to someone else). Eventually I got the room, although they did try to make me pay again (I refused and didn’t have to in the end). Nevertheless they said I would be unable to get a refund for the day I couldn’t check in despite them making the mistake due to it being in the contract that you can’t check in late?? Which sounds like something from the 19th century. As I was not at fault here - something which would’ve been nice of the hotel to offer. The room itself was horrible (which you expect for the cheapest hotel available) but was also unclean. And with the above happening, meant it would’ve been worth booking a more expensive hotel elsewhere. Only positive was for the festival; transport links were good. But overall - avoid unless you want to be scammed.

Lone female foreign traveler books hotel w/o wifi
I booked a stay at the ResidHotel because orbitz said they had free wifi for guest... When I arrived, there was no wifi, and continued to be no wifi for my entire stay. The staff was super nice, spoke really good English, and gave me directions to the nearest cybercafe, which was helpful.. But the cafe closed at 7p, after which time I was stuck without being able to look up directions, call an uber, etc. which friggin sucked. I booked the room knowing what I could be getting myself into at that price range, but was pleasantly surprised. The area wasn't as touristy as Cannes, which I prefer. A morning market is located right near the hotel and the beach access was super close. If the wifi had been working I would have been really pleased for the price, would have said it was a "steal." if there was AC, I couldn't get it to work, but my balcony provided all the air flow I needed. I would recommend this hotel to travelers (not tourist, mind you) that don't have super high standards, prefer to get off the beaten path, and don't mind navigating public transit. If you weekend at the four seasons, stay away... But if you're like me and frequent hostels, it's a decent amount for the room.

Good value comfortable accommodation.
Stayed in a 2nd. floor studio at the rear of the building. Very spacious with sliding doors unto a large balcony which gets the sun all day but only has a view of surrounding apartments. Bathroom large with plenty of hot water, no bath tho. Kitchenette was adequately equipped but cooker was hard to use since there were no discernable markings on the control knobs. No washing up liquid supplied, so bring your own. Large 'Intermarche' at the roundabout just a couple of mins. walk away. I was there in the last weed of September and breakfast was not available, seemed like they were winding down for winter. For anyone wanting to walk in the Esterel region there is a frequent bus service from outside the hotel along the coast to the south as far as Le Trayas which I found very useful. All in all very good value for money if you're on a budget. More affluent people might prefer somewhere with a sea view.

A great place to stay if you're attending the Cannes film festival on a modest budget, as it's only a half hour walk from the Palais.

awful place to stay
We made our reservation online...very nice pictures. We arrive late at night and it took us about 40 minutes to figure out how to enter and where to park. The place smells very bad, the beds were uncomfortable It was too late for us to find another place to stay, but would not recommend it to anyone.

Not bad...
The location of this hotel is good. It is near of railway station or beach. The reception is open from 8AM to 12AM and from 5PM to 8PM. I don't recommend to arrive between 12AM and 5PM. A neighbor grilled meat on the balcony and smoke went to our room. For a parking to pay 9 euros. For one night it is ok, but...

You get what you pay for..
After a transatlantic trip we arrive there on schedule on Sunday afternoon and there was no one in the reception. There is a phone to call where they hardly speak English and then we were told that some one will come at 4pm in the evening to help us with check in. The reception people are only for a few hours a day at their desk and those hours are usually the ones you need to be out at meetings in Cannes. If you want a very cheap place to stay, this is the one... but service-wise, you get what you pay for..

Resdihotel festival, Cannes
As I arrived in my hotel, I was struck down by the smell of urine and popcorn, perhaps buttered. I open the door (to hell), into darkness, while my friend fumbled around for a light switch. As we entered the 'room' we were horrified to find a double bed, even though we had booked a twin. Since me and my friend are not homosexual or partial to sharing a bed no bigger then a postage stamp, particularly with a incredibly sweaty man, this proved problematic. The next problem was the lack of natural light and no air condition which was also in the described as standard on the site. upon exploration of the closet, we procured 2 felt blankets, which folded up, acted as an impromptu bed for the whole holiday, and a small de-humidifier , which only served to make our room smell as bad as the hallway.
