Guest Ratings & Reviews
The hotel is conveniently located next to a delicious Italian restaurant named Portofinos, and it's near an event we attended. The rooms, while clean, could definitely benefit from updates in the bath tub area. The service was efficient with good housekeeping, shops/commercial services, and laundry facilities available. The dining options were varied with many choices, including typical Corsican products. Overall, the hotel offers a great location and satisfactory services, but room updates are needed.
The hotel is located by restaurants, on the busted sidewalk, close to everything, in an area with security cameras. The rooms, although clean, definitely need updating. The service was decent with good housekeeping, shops/commercial services, and laundry facilities. The dining options were varied, with freshly baked European bread being a highlight. Value for money could be better due to the outdated rooms.
