Hotel Aston La Scala

Visited Aston La Scala on my honeymoon and the only thing going for it is the location. It’s PRIME to say the least. Everything else is just beyond average…. This is a 2 maybe 3 star hotel acting like a 4 star. We arrived in Nice at roughly 11am and obviously we weren’t expecting to get into our room. The First lady we spoke to was lovely and said she would put us in a priority to get the room cleaned! Which we were greatly appreciative of. We explored the town and came back at 2pm asking if the room was ready (again I understand it’s before check in) and the original girl said she would confirm with a colleague. A Second Lady then started shaking her head and speaking in French in a harsh tone. We were then told it wasn’t ready. We waited in the lobby until 2:50pm until they eventually let us go up as if the 50 minutes had made a difference 🤣.
The room itself was clean however the bathroom looked like it had been recently renovated by someone that realised how expensive bathroom restoration is and said “nah I can do this”. See attached photos!
Also the blinds were coming off and one side only had one blind?
The alley way next to our room has a lot of noise of drunken people too and a brawl spewed out one night

very well located, and rooms are ok if you don’t intend to spend a lot of time in the rooms. Cleaning is not done well, and the rooms are old. Our shower had some moldy corners. Shampoo etc wasn’t refilled. Overpriced for the quality you get.

Stayed here for a long weekend as a group of 4 with 2 rooms that were paid for as the same. First impression was good, nice location near the newer area with all the shops and only a 10-15 min walk from the older town. We were given 2 completely different rooms - the one on the 6th floor was lovely, spacious and bright with a nice bathroom and view, the one on the 2nd floor was disappointing, darker, no view (window opened up to where staff came outside and were smoking/talking at all hours), the shower wasn’t fantastic, things were missing like a kettle to make a hot drink but the other facilities were there, no door signs to hang do not disturb on the door, and we only got bathrobes and slippers on our checkout day. Beds were comfy enough. A lot of noise was experienced on the Friday night into the early hours of Saturday morning, sounded like furniture being moved or repairs carried out, very annoying. We didn’t eat or drink anything from here so cannot comment on that. There is a nice place on the 7th floor with a bar and you can sit out on the rooftop, but there is no swimming pool to use, there was no water in it and it was blocked off. You can leave your luggage here if you have a later flight which was good. Be aware of a city tax as well, an extra payment we weren’t aware of. There is a safe and a mini bar in the rooms - this was expensive though. Not sure if I would stay here again.
