Pros +
- We were a group of 12 people and they managed to put us in the same floor, and they cleaned the rooms every day
- The air conditioning and pool were great during a hot period.
- The pool was great & easy access by car
Cons -
- The property had a private parking spot, which in reality was 15 parking spots always taken, meaning that we had to find parking 300/500 meters away. The rooms were not as beautiful as seen in the photos, the showers were not clean, as well as the swimming pool (which had dirt water that tasted like mud and the shower next to the pool was always dirty). The rooms don’t have a small fridge and the hairdryer was made in the 1950 probably, no iron in the rooms and the bar in the hall was always closed, we had to take coffees in the vending machines (1,5 euros each, for dirty water).
- The room did not have a fridge or kettle which was a bit odd. When we asked to put a bottle of wine in the kitchen fridge, the staff said no despite there being no fridge in room.
- Very dated decor, bathrooms need updating but was clean and dud the job!

Bad
when we arrived, we have been told that the Air Condition is broken but we still had to pay the full amount. As it was extremly hot in the rooms we had to open the windows but the issue was now, that in front of the Hotel was a very noisy generator and we couldnt sleep at all. The ypromised to bring some water, which they never did. very poor service!
Staff were nice bed ok balcony with view of port. Near excellent pizza spot
Ac didnt work, electricity went out, cockroaches in stairs. Room was old, I was overcharged. No fridge to keep cold drinks in room. No coffwe.
Clean rooms, location was only a short walk to restaurants/shops/etc.
Low quality toilet paper, small shower
Not recommend it
The rooms are very old, only the common areas has been renewed. Many things are broken (floor, bathroom tiles..). We didn’t feel comfortable in the room and went there just to sleep. I had definitely better expectations.
The bed was super comfy. 24/7 shop very close to hotel. Hotel is clean and staff friendly, but the hotel is older and soon needs renovation.
Hotel quite outside of the city center.. It's ok to walk, but with small kids, maybe a bit far.
We loved the rooftop pool, the excellent staff and the spacious bathroom.
It was a 25 minute walk from the old town which is sort of the only place where anything is going on. However, after awhile it felt like a 10 minute walk.
The pool was right on our floor. The staff were very friendly and polite, and our rooms were next to each other. The breakfast was very tasty and there was plenty of it.
I felt more space was needed in the shower and toilet (I am a large person) and that overall the rooms would have benefitted from a little more space. I also felt that two keys per room were needed as one is needed for the light box in the room, and if one occupant of the room wanted to sleep while the other went out then you have to disturb them to get into the room.
The air conditioning was strong (huge plus) and the pool area looked recently renovated. The rooms and decor are dated but clean, which for the price makes sense.
It’s a 25-30min walk to basically everything in Ajaccio.
The bath and the shower
No fridge in the room for keeping water and aliments cool
Helpful and friendly reception staff. Good breakfast.Lovely pool area. View to water. Good parking.
Step ino bathroom - a danger for older people. A bit thread-bare and dripping aircon in hall on our level.
breakfast ok, staff helpful, location decent if you have a car, good size of rooms
old furniture, the hotel requires a solid renovation
The room was spacious with a breathtaking view of the bay and sunrise, clean bed, clean towels, and spacious bathroom. The balcony is great. A spot to charge an electric car is right under the hotel. The location is pretty good too, if you have a car.
The room is very outdated in terms of furniture and facilities. The water in the tub doesn't go quickly and gets stuck for a while. No bathroom supplies were available, no toothpaste, no toothbrush. The parking was full
we liked room , breakfast, parking
The noise of the main street
room was good. Breakfast was very good. I was very happy to get a parking space, pity that it was not possible to reserve one.
Not recommended
Old furniture, moquette with stains, staff unprepared and not very friendly.
parking and close to ferry port.
should have offered free breakfast for the price of the room. Instead we went to the end of the street where we had breakfast complet for 5 euros but would have preferred it in the hotel.
Ok, but a bit run down.
The room was scruffy and run down. It’s due for refurbishment! The air con didn’t cool the room.
