The hotel had a charming atmosphere with lovely birdsong throughout the day, and the outdoor pool was a delightful feature. However, the room was a bit dated, and the shower setup was inconvenient. The service was a mix of kind and helpful interactions, but there was a notable negative encounter regarding WiFi access. The location was perfect for a relaxing getaway, close to the village center and the sea. The dining experience, though pleasant, fell slightly short compared to similar establishments. Overall, a cozy stay with minor room for improvement.

I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were spacious and spotlessly clean with all amenities, but I encountered a disturbing incident during my Spa visit. The location was excellent, right in Brando, close to the sea, and easily walkable, but I wish the service had been more accommodating. The dining experience left a positive impression despite seeming expensive at €18. Overall, a decent stay with some notable issues to be aware of.

The hotel offers rooms that are both immaculate and comfortable, resembling a grandmother's modest spare bedroom with a small balcony providing a pleasant view.

Staying at this hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms felt cozy with a lovely terrace to relax, but the use of outside door shutters for security was a bit concerning.

I had a mix of experiences at this hotel. The room was not as quiet as I hoped with noise from a nearby school and neighbors moving around upstairs. However, the 'privilege suite' on the ground floor offered a lovely meal experience with Corsican charcuterie, cheese, and wine. The terrace was a nice touch to unwind.
