Hôtel Castel Vecchio

Personal recommendation: Do not stay longer than one night. Cons 👎 - The smell in the room from past cigarette-days is really bad (yes, people used to smoke in the rooms!), there are no refreshments to cover it. It has not been a pleasure trying to sleep with the disgusting smell - The carpet is dirty - The walls are dirty - The interior is way outdated (maybe 70s or 80s) and the design is hideous (personal opinion) - The AC also smelled bad, so we turned it off and opened the window. Unfortunately, this meant that we had to fight the mosquitos in the middle of the night (no net or similar has been installed to hinder insects from entering the room). Additionally, sleeping was also due to heavy and noisy traffic until 3am (yes, I am not joking) a challenge - The light in the bathroom is okay but is relatively dark - If you like good coffee, go somwhere else. The coffee we had wasn't tasty and the machine decided to work only sometimes - The WiFi was okay, but the regularly disconnection sucks. We had to reconnect every tere and now Pros 👍 - The breakfast was worth the price and the variety is good. Also, the baguette was fresh and had a crunchy crust - The cleaning staff was very friendly and did a proper job - The pool was good and pleasant, though it also is old and you can clearly see that - the bed was comfortable To sum up: The hotel offers all the basics but lacks strongly in room and infrastructure quality. We were especially disappointed by the disgusting smell because this is not something that you expect for 110 Euros per night. The hotel is really old and definitely needs a general renovation. The location and the breakfasts are fair. I hope that this review helps you to decide whether you want to choose the hotel or not. Corsica is beautiful, but only if you can enjoy it.
