We knapten echter af op de kamer die wij geboekt hadden. Dit was kamer in het niet lang geleden gerestaureerde koloniale huis.
De inrichting was sober en niet wat je voor deze prijs mag verwachten: op de vloer lag linoleum, de verlichting klopte niet, het Lavazzo koffiezetapparaat werkte slecht en de badkamer was zeer onhandig ingericht. Er was geen aparte douchecabine. De badkamer wás de douchecabine, met daarin een toilet en een wastafel. Met als gevolg dat de hele badkamer nat was als je gedoucht had. Er stond weliswaar een vloerwisser in de hoek, maar dat wil je niet in een kamer van dit prijsniveau… Daarbij komt ook dat de badkamer van de buren aan die van ons grensde en dat het heel gehorig was: gesprekken kon je letterlijk horen, zo ook douche- en toiletgeluiden…
Het diner van de Table d’Hôtes was in orde, maar niet speciaal.
Al met al hadden we meer verwacht van ons verblijf in Jardin Malanga.
Merci à Héléna, Riccardo et leur équipe pour leur accueil.
Concernant le petit déjeuner toujours la même chose 2 morceaux de fromage 2 morceaux de jambon, 1 petit pain sans goût et tout mou (impossible d’avoir un œuf pas possible d’avoir un cappuccino convenable sans chocolat et sucre (machine automatique) viennoiseries surgelées et ultra grasse… la salle de déjeuner et de souper est sombre et triste éclairage blanc désagréable avec des fenêtres en plastique ??? Alors qu’il fait chaud ??? À la mer du nord je comprendrais ???
Le positif: un beau jardin un beau salon et la maison pour faire une belle photo ????
Le Jardin Malanga fails completely in delivering a serene and upscale hotel experience simply because its rooms—as experienced during my stay—lack any sound insulation.
When a couple travels many hours to a hotel promising a luxury experience, they expect a basic standard of privacy, and aural privacy is paramount.
Sadly, our cabin at Jardin Malanga had an adjoining suite, and the two suites had only a thin louvered door separating them. Within a couple hours of arriving, we were subjected to a loud argument by the family in the adjoining suite that involved the mother yelling at her children and the children back-talking the parents. We heard every word as if the family was in our own suite. Afterward, we discovered that we could even hear whispers and shushing through the walls/door.
How in the world is anyone “getting away from it all” when they have less sound privacy than in a youth hostel?
We actually enjoyed all other aspects of the hotel and grounds, and the employees were very kind and helpful, but going back to our room was a dread because we didn’t know what noise we’d be subjected to or what of our sounds would be broadcast as well.
In other words, the terrible sound insulation at an upscale property like this overshadows and detracts from all of the good and pretty parts of Jardin Malanga. It’s like the proprietor is trying to focus on the facade, not the personal experience of, for example, guests not being disturbed while sleeping or not being a disturbance while being intimate.
The owner and management of Jardin Malanga should be ashamed of failing guests in this crucial aspect of the “hospitality business,” and should at least alert guests prior to confirming reservations that sound insulation is non-existent and, therefore, paradise is not private.
