Schreckliche Nacht
Pros:

Die Lage war an sich sehr schön, direkt an der Altstadt und am Hafen gelegen. Zu den Fähren nur ca. 5 min.
Das Personal an der Rezeption war sehr hilfsbereit.

Cons:

Das Hotel war sehr sehr hellhörig und damit laut in jeder Hinsicht. Die großen Fenster hielten keine Geräusche ab. Der verrückte Verkehr war die ganze Nacht zu hören, ebenso das intensive Liebesspiel 2 Zimmer weiter. Davor hat uns dann zwar der freundliche Herr an der Rezeption gerettet, den Verkehr konnte er allerdings auch nicht bremsen. Wir haben buchstäblich kein Auge zugemacht und hätten genausogut im Auto übernachten können.

Struttura discreta, ma con ottima posizione
Pros:

Posizione ottima e buona colazione.

Cons:

Struttura datata e priva di adeguata manutenzione, con disservizi quali maniglie difettose (che si staccano facilmente), problemi allo scarico del bagno e un impianto di condizionamento instabile, soggetto a continui malfunzionamenti.

Pros:

Everything was great and the breakfast was better than expected. The location is terrific and the hotel is easy to find after I arrived with the ferry.

Cons:

The only issue I had was with the shower in my bathroom. It was ridiculously narrow to get in to and any person fuller than I am would have not made it in. A single room should still have a shower that is functioning well for a solo traveler.

A nice hotel with restaurant viewing the harbour.
Pros:

I have given reviews of this hotel during many years. It is perfectly situated close to the harbour and the Corsica ferries. It is lovely to walk up Via Grande in the afternoon, sit down at a restaurant and enjoy life. They also have a decent restaurant inside/outside the hotel.

Cons:

Parking. A nightmare. They have a private garage 100 m up the street, but this is for small and medium sized cars. It is a challenge to find a communal parking place outside the hotel.
The breakfast is average for a 4 star hotel.
