The Hotel des Alizes is ideally located -- about five minutes from the train station and ten minutes from the beach and in an area with a lot of good shopping and restaurants.
It is on the second floor of a business/apartment complex and is pretty small, with only about eight rooms. There is elevator access to the hostel, but it is barely big enough to fit a person, let alone a person with suitcases. It has a small, cramped lobby with a television and the one toilet that is shared by all visitors. There is no internet access at the hostel, but internet cafes are within walking distance. The hostel offers a quiet, fairly non-social atmosphere, though most of the visitors seem to be college-aged.
The four-person room (where we stayed) is a decent size, with big widows overlooking a basilica. It has a washroom with a sink and shower, which was very convenient and much appreciated. However, the showerheads are handheld, the water pressure is low, and the water gets cold quickly.
Breakfast and drinks are not offered and there is no kitchen or area to prepare food. The rooms are clean (cleaned daily from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m.) and the beds are pretty comfortable for the price. Additionally, clean linens and towels are provided at no extra cost. The Hotel des Alizes is nothing special but is not bad, especially if you plan to spend a lot of time out of the hostel and just return to sleep.
