Very clean, not enough staff

Hotel Ligo had a fun, colorful design. The room and lobby were very clean. Blackout blinds covered the windows at night. The bed was comfortable. However, the hotel needed more staff. When we arrived at breakfast, half the tables were covered by other guests' dirty dishes. The plates had run out. One of the coffee machines had no mugs. On the second day, the eggs were cold (not room temperature -- actually cold!). There was a long line at checkout because the front desk had just one worker. I would stay here again, but not at full price.

Idéalement situé avec quelques bémol

Le séjour c'est très bien passé. La propreté est moyenne . Niveau salle de bain c'est une baignoire pour prendre une douche c'est vraiment pas pratique. Le confort est la quand même le personnel est agréable le cadre du hall d'entrée est parfait. A 10 minutes du vieux port , parking république en face de l'hôtel.Il y a une très grosse différence entre l'entrée et les chambres. Ne vaut pas un 4 étoiles.

La chambre est classique, déçu de la Terasse, rien à voir avec les photos. La terasse est partagée avec toutes les autres des autres chambre. Une baignoire mais pas de bouchon donc juste une douche… Propreté à revoir.

Abbiamo soggiornato in questa struttura per un weekend lungo. La struttura è in buone condizioni ad eccezione del bagno che è datato ed essenziale (aveva un asciugacapelli vecchissimo che quando è stato accesso ha restituito la polvere lì ferma da tempo). Il personale è gentile e la posizione strategica per raggiungere comodamente a piedi tutti i maggiori punti di interesse e i ristoranti/negozi. Buon rapporto qualità/prezzo
