We looked for a reasonably priced hotel near Ajaccio for one night only and opted for Le Narval. 
The hotel is located about 25 km north of Ajaccio, close to the beach (walking distance). At check-in, we were struck by the absent look of the male receptionist who just went through the motions. He was most definitely not very forthcoming with information, and not the least welcoming.
Our room was located on the first floor, with a view over trees and the sea, but it was dark, somewhat musty, and needed some maintenance work. Each time we entered or exited the room, I had to play with the key for some time before it would turn in the lock. The bed creaked loudly each time we moved, and the mattress felt too soft for us (a matter of individual preference of course).
Wifi is only available near the reception area and by the outside pool, but it works acceptably well.
Breakfast is very basic, consisting of bread, one croissant, a limited choice of jam, and a pot of coffee (probably also tea or chocolate).
It is during breakfast that we saw why the receptionist seemed so exhausted all the time; he also helps "transporting" coffee pots to the guests, and setting and clearing tables at a snail's pace. He was definitely not overworked, since there were very few guests, but it was obvious that he was an unhappy soul who felt exploited. The rest of the personnel however were more professional.
Not a hotel we would go back to even for one night.

Disappointing

We stayed in the hotel for three days during an organized bike trip. Although we were slightly afraid because of **, we were pleasantly surprised - the service and breakfast was amazing, the rooms were nice and being cleaned daily, all the amenities included. Definitely recommendable stay and really nice owner :-) Nice beach is 3 minutes from the hotel.

pleasant hidden surprise

We were made welcome by the friendly and helpful receptionist. 
Our room was a mezzanine, which meant, our daughter's bed was accessible via a staircase within our room. She absolutely loved it. We had a seaview from our balcony and just a mere 2 minute walk to the beach, which was, even in August, not crowded at all.
Breakfast was basic, but good.
Within the courtyard of the hotel is a good size deep pool, which we all loved. The pace in the hotel was very leisurely and informal.
The hotel has it's own carpark, good when you arrive by rental car as we did.
There are 2 good restaurants in walking distance and a few more, if you venture further of go by car.
If you  look for a budget accommodation, look no further.
