Best Western Plus Ajaccio Amiraute

Extremely bad experience, no service. It's not worth 4 stars. A vacation completely ruined by a rotten hotel. Some employees are contemptuous. The cafeteria food is disgusting (microwaved meals) and still takes an hour to prepare?! And when you explain how bad it is, the employee laughs in your face... The rooms aren't available before 4 PM, you have to wait... It's very noisy, all day long and even during the night. Check-out is at 11 AM (5 hours to clean a room?!) but you're FORBIDDEN from eating in common areas. You have to eat in your room (which has already been vacated). Or at the cafeteria (see above). Breakfast is basic (no ordering possible, always the same food, coffees at the machine only, only two machine for fruit juices, mini-pastries are frozen...) Very far from my experiences at other Best Western Plus hotels. Room cleaning is half-baked (when it's done at all). Ants in the room, even in the bathroom... And no security: the balcony door doesn't lock (very dangerous with children), anyone can go up in the elevator (no key card needed). We had to ask to replace the shower soaps (dispenser, not even a real soap bar) and to bring us q tips (the front desk employee told us to come down and get them at reception. In a towel, perhaps?). No water bottles in the room. No snacks either... No room service either. No shutters in the rooms, only curtains that close halfway. A family with two young children: no help whatsoever. A German couple with a Louis Vuitton bag? They roll out the red carpet with a bellhop taking their suitcases. We had a suite, we paid €2000 for 5 nights; this is the last time I'll use a Best Western "Plus"... As for the location, it's in the middle of an industrial area. It's extremely dangerous to walk to the nearby Spar. The shuttle has fixed hours and doesn't run on Sundays, so it's recommended to take a taxi or rent a car.

Excellent hotel! Front desk staff, Emrico, was very helpful. Our room was impressive, clean, and very comfortable. Nice view from the balcony in the spacious suite. It's a long walk to the city centre but doable. Easy ride to the airport too.
