Bayeux is a fantastic city with some of everything great about France. It has an active main street lined with cafes, fashion stores, and more bakeries than are found in most US states.
Of particular interest is the "Family Home" hostel: a massive, labyrinthian house in which I wandered for literally an hour, up and down the towers' spiral staircases and through the dark creaking halls, looking for my room. Even with my advanced claustrophobic mapping skills (honed in countless hours of First Person Shooters), I was simply lost.
