Reviews for Hôtel Posta - Vecchia

Review 1：We were in deep trouble (with US$ that no Corsican bank would exchange) and the staff at Posto Vechio actually found a hotel (in Ajaccio) and coordinated our travels to save the day! Not to mention all the great things about the hotel: location, cleanliness, quiet etc.

Review 2：Nothing to dislike. This was my third stay in this hotel.

Review 3：This is a cosy, no-nonsense hotel with a good breakfast, good staff and lovely views of the entrance to the port, especially at sunrise as the early ferries arrive (ask for a room with a sea-view). The Old Town and the beautiful Old Port area are only a short walk away in one direction, and the massive Place St. Nicholas (with its underground car-park) and the town-centre is a short walk in the other direction.

Review 4：No fridge in the room and pillows like flat rocks!

Review 5：The location and fact that we could have a family room for four (with view) were the positive points for us, as we were only in Bastia to catch the morning ferry to Nice.

Review 6：Missing fridge, Wifi was not working, spending extra money on rooming services.....missing safe box, no hair dryer

Review 7：Close to the Old Hardboard & nice restaurant area

Review 8：Lack of a lift to get to the upper floors, lack of a bidet in the bathroom (but this is the norm in France). The breakfast is definitely standard, maybe a little too expensive for what is served. Not very easy to find parking nearby, if you have to move your car often, maybe this is not the best hotel for you.

Review 9：Great location near Bastia town center and old port.

Review 10：Elevator to higher floor is smallest possible. One luggage and one person. But experience is interesting.

Review 11：Very nice view to the see and short distance to old town restorans. Lot on restorans srtight front of hotel on the promenade.

Review 12：The air condition in the single room was out of fuction. When it was turned on, the room was even hotter. It was too hot that my friend who stayed in the signle room couldn't sleep well.

Review 13：The location is good the staffs are kind.

Review 14：Some music from local open-air bars, but not a problem as all went quiet after midnight.

Review 15：Location excellent as a short-break base for exploring. Staff welcoming. Rooms (sea view) spacious and clean.

Review 16：Minor complaints: Bed was a little hard. Shower was hand held so you could not stand under it. WIFI had anoying time out so you had to keep logging back in.

Review 17：Great location. I would stay again.

Review 18：Can't believe this rates as a three star, More like one star. WiFi worse than hopeless, bathroom badly designed, shower head useless. Wardrobe poor quaility. No lift in our building. No hairdryer, small bed, tiny TV. Toiletries lacking.

Review 19：The only redeeming features are location, room with a sea view and cleanliness.

Review 20：nothing

Review 21：Position and sea-view are spectacular even from our small last floor room with no balcony (only window) . We liked the in-style refurbished old building, the kindness of the owner and the cleanliness of the room. Ferry docks and historical center is just few steps away Breakfast is good though the choiche ath the buffet is not so wide. Be aware that last floor rooms need some additional steps

Review 22：we were there on a Friday it was very noisy all night with people outside our room due to the local clubs and bars.

Review 23：Stayed for one night before we cached a ferry great location only 5mins from the port. secure parking for motorcycle. Close to the harbour and restaurnats

Review 24：Our very overpriced room that needed major re-thinking and redecorating. Everything was crammed together eg the toilet positioned against the bath. There was a large black damp stain in the bedroom. Not 3 star.

Review 25：Convenient location for train and ferry and wandering around citadel. Good restaurants nearby. Helpful staff.

Review 26：no negatives at all - a perfect little hotel :)

Review 27：Michel at front desk made us so welcome. The room was beautiful, so clean and tastefully decorated. The bathroom was spotless, and roomy. On arrival, we repaired to a close by restaurant and ate delicious salad and pizza. It was 11pm and restaurants were still serving food. The hotel is in the middle of a busy, social scene and charming. The hotel itself is quiet, which we liked. We got a lovely breakfast, cheerfully delivered to our room.

Review 28：We liked nothing. Our room was not on the main building. There was meant to be a lift but no, there was meant to be wifi but no. Rooms were very basic. Beds tired. Not value for money.

Review 74：Maybe a bit expensive compared to what one could find in the island

Review 75：Excellent location, with very good restaurants around Staff was friendly and ready to help

Review 76：I thought the breakfast was very poor for the price (9 euros). The bread/croissants weren't fresh and there was nothing really healthy to eat.

Review 77：The hotel is very central, in a quiet side street close to the sea. It is quiet and comfortable.

Review 78：Room was on the fifth floor, and had a low sloping roof. Lift was tiny and only went as far as the fourth floor, so bringing up big bags was a bit tricky.

Review 79：Great location. Tidy room. Spacious bathroom with a bath. Incredible view of harbour.

Review 80：Staff was very co-operative and helpful. It was very nice to know all the information at the hotel itself as the Office de tourisme was closed. For example, the transport, touristic places etc...

Review 81：Service at breakfast was difficult for 3 people when only given one tray and no plates.Waitress was not very helpful.

Review 82：Location to the ferry was excellent! Having the hotel option when booking the ferry also excellent. Easy internet access.

Review 84：Convenient location for old port and New port. Old and full of character . Some rooms with lovely sea views.

Review 86：near market and ferry, beds were rather good, breakfast was nice.

Review 87：decor a bit jaded - but clean.

Review 88：24 hr reception. All staff extremely helpful. Room aircon very quiet. We would use this hotel again on another visit. Very close to all seafront restaurants 1 - 5 minutes walk. Also sea port is nearby

Review 92：good location, excellent view, had a view of all ferries coming into Bastia from hotel room. Man at reception extremely friendly.

Review 93：Hotel is "over-stared" and therefore overpriced. Tumbledownwould be a good description. Walk from miniscule lft to room involved up& down four sets of stairs.

Review 94：Cleanliness marginal, room, bed and bathroom were all too small. WiFiwas tenuous, appeared that we could only have one device online at atime and then couldn't connect at all so in the end we gave up.

Review 95：Location was okay.

Review 96：the rooms are very basic, the hotel is old, elevator goes only to 1st floor and can hardly hold one person with a suitcase.

Review 97：he hotel is clean and well positioned in the centre of the old town/harbour

Review 98：Bathroom sink got clogged up, but then again, it seems to be the rule at all hotels.

Review 99：The location is the best, too central. Nice breakfast for 8 euro. All good

Review 101：The location is very good, near the Old Port and very close to the ferry terminal.

Review 102：Attitude of the final receptionist when we left. Very arrogant and unfriendly when collecting our bags after a long day on the bikes, even though we were paying customers. A said mark on an otherwise nice hotel.

Review 103：Facilities - luggage room. Some very friendly staff.

Review 104：Parking - even at the beginning of the season is not easy. Be prepared to wait a long time for a slot within walking distance of the hotel

Review 105：Great location between the old port and the ferry terminals. With a sea view the constant ferry traffic is fun to watch. Friendly staff and pleasant room

Review 106：I enjoyed the city of Bastia on the Mediterranean Sea. There are several good restaurants, the one next to the hotel has a lot of potential. There are some beaches close by but they are not that easily attained. Nice architecture, nice for a two day stay.

Review 107：I did not sleep very well and only a few hours because I could hear everything from the next room, where a very loud group of youth made a lot of noise during the complete night. Very clearaudient.
