  The climbing gym team will guide you in discovering and perfecting this most urban of outdoor activities! On an indoor structure meeting all safety standards, climbers move freely above thick crash pads. A discipline at the forefront of trends, its exponential growth in popularity is due to its fun and social nature. Bouldering is for everyone, from beginners to experienced climbers (from the age of 2).
  (Important: Shoes are mandatory, either climbing shoes or ballet-style shoes. Rental is available at reception from size 25.)
  
  The equipment
  - The main bouldering room
  It comprises 560 m² of climbing surface. The walls, 4.50 m high, are equipped with 4,500 holds selected from the best manufacturers. We change more than ten boulder problems every week so you can always enjoy new challenges among the more than 100 problems on the walls.
  - The Pitchou space
  It is designed for children aged 2 to 10. An opportunity to discover the first sensations of climbing and reach the first summits while having fun!
  - The training area
  It will allow you to improve your skills, warm up, and stretch. Because bouldering goes hand in hand with good physical preparation, you can use the equipment provided (mats, jump ropes, weights, resistance bands, etc.).

I'm only giving a thumbs up to the climbing area, which has great potential but is ruined by a lack of maintenance. First of all, the condition of the holds is poor; they're worn and covered in too much chalk, making them difficult to grip. It also needs cleaning; there are piles of dust at the base of the boulders, and the chairs are stained. As for the children's area, it's a shame they didn't create some small, colored routes for toddlers (from age 3) and vary the types of holds. It's a shame because it could be a great bouldering gym in the heart of the city.

I recently stopped by this establishment for a coffee, and the experience was unfortunately very disappointing. The welcome was particularly cold: barely a greeting, no warmth in the exchange. The service felt like an intrusion. When I ordered a coffee, I had to ask for a spoon, which reinforced this feeling of a lack of attention to customers. The waitress, in particular, was very unfriendly, with an attitude bordering on total disinterest. This is all the more surprising given that the place presents itself as an urban, collaborative, and convivial space. One might expect to find a lively, human, open atmosphere… but it's quite the opposite. The ambiance is rather gloomy, without smiles or warmth, and the whole place frankly lacks soul. In the end, it's a place that aims to be communal but doesn't feel welcoming. It's a shame, because the concept of the place could be interesting if the service were up to par.
