Jolies prestations pour un 2 **

Bonjour, de par son emplacement, ses prestations et son cachet, l'Alamanda est le meilleur rapport qualité prix de l'île. Tout simplement. Pas le plus calme en revanche, de par son emplacement, mais séjourner au cœur de l'hermitage, dans un lieu si beau et bien entretenu (la piscine est impeccable) que celui ci pour 100€, est une très bonne affaire.

Hôtel sympathique mais quelques points négatifs à savoir : il fallait mettre un papier plié dans la porte de WC-salle de douche, sinon elle s'ouvrait. Draps propres mais tachés. Il y avait un arbre de Noël CE (enfants et bruit). Nous avons été prévenus qu'à notre arrivée, soit la veille de l'événement. Si on nous avait prévenu à la réservation, on aurait décalé afin d'accéder à la piscine avec tranquillité, ce que nous nous recherchions. Même jour, nous n'avions plus de place pour nous garer sur le parking (vu l'évènement), et avons dû se garer assez loin. Personne ne nous a demandé si notre séjour s'était bien déroulé quand on a rendu les clés, sinon on aurait dénoncé ces choses à ce moment là.

L hôtel est très bien placé. Un personnel souriant à l accueil, chaleureux, le personnel de ménage également, par contre le service au petit-déjeuner était médiocre, aucun sourire, table sale et non dressé (petit-déjeuner à 11€ pour qques croissants, des fruits passés de la veille, du jambon vieilli qui donnait envie de vérifier la date de péremption). Je ferai un choix différent à l avenir.

L'établissement est spacieux, accueillant et propre ,mais les chambres un peu petites . La salle de sport voisine très bruyante. Mais à cette évocation, on nous a immédiatement changé de chambre. Trop cool et très calme, juste parfaite. Le ménage est réalisé tous les jours et les hôtesses sont très souriantes et professionnelles . Le petit déjeuner n'est peut être pas à la hauteur de son tarif.

Un petite chambre pratique

Avant tout je pense qu’il est important de se rappeler que c’est un hôtel 2 étoiles; Partant de ce principe la chambre est plutôt bien, on a eu un grand lit, une petite terrasse avec table et chaises au dessus de la piscine. Certes la cabine de douche est petite mais ça fait l’affaire. Le petit déjeuner est simple mais en buffet ce qui permet de satisfaire les gros appétits, l’hôtel est juste à côté de la plage et le personnel très agréable donc au final nous sommes très contents du rapport qualité prix et on a passé un très bon séjour

Dommage que l'hotel ne mise pas davantage sur le restaurant italien, les ressources sont partagees entre le bar et le restaurant italien (l'autre restaurant ayant ses propres ressources), certaines commandes passent a la trappe et/ou apres les commandes du bar A noter les brunchs du dimanche qui rendent l'hotel beaucoup animé autour de la piscine Le personnel est toujours souriant
