The location of this property is super convenient , only few minutes walk from metro and bus stations where you can travel to any corner of the city . the staff of the hotel is friendly and helpful . The only downside is around the property a bit dirty .

It was great overall. My only complaint is that my partner and I expected a double bed. Instead, we had two single beds pushed together. My partner fell through the center in the middle of the night. The beds slid apart.

The pictures are photoshopped!
The state of the hotel resembles nothing like the pictures. The place is filthy. There were massive stains on the carpets of the lift lobby and when we got to our room, there were people sleeping in the bed. The location is out of the way for any tourist. We did not even stay a night and checked into another hotel instead.

Exceptionally helpful staff with our auto. Good information on Marseille. Clean room. A/C fine. Street name and hotel name are not known by many in area so carefully use your map. Coffee machine in lobby but no breakfast. Nice feeling. Kitchenette useful for longer stays.

I booked a room with a double bed, but we ended up with two reunited single beds, and the irony was that the two mattresses were not even the same, I had a very firm and even hard mattress, while my partner had a very soft one, so the two mattresses kept on separated, and I woke up each day with a back ache. When I try to talk about it to the front desk, I've been told that nothing was promised to me, even though it was on the booking, and even though I paid more for it. I wouldn't have cared about the toilets flush being so weak, we had to push on it 3-4 times, and the mold around the bathtub.

You were kind enough to share your experience and we would like to thank you for that. Your comments are extremely important as they provide an additional motivation for us. I have taken good note of all points you highlighted about the apartment and informed the Housekeeping. This lack is not usual in our residence and it is not acceptable for us. We do apologize for the inconvenience. Hoping to have the pleasure to welcoming you back soon and make your stay more enjoyable. Please be informed that there is no extra charge for twin or large bed Kind regards,

Nice stay for a few nights while we toured Marseille. Hotel is kind of off the beaten path and on a quieter street, however there was a nice square full of restaurants and shops a few blocks away, easily within walking distance. Room was spacious and clean. Staff was very helpful and friendly. It did get a bit noisy in the mornings as housekeeping made their rounds, but overall it was a pleasant stay.

We arrived at 1.00am and went straight to bed but the next morning we noticed that the bed was full of sand as the floor was not cleaned properly.

Location is great. I would rather stay there then at the port. It is so easy to take a tram or a metro or even walk. The tram is very frequent, the ride is short and it is a pleasant experience. There is a supermarket nearby, there are places to eat. The property is clean, modern, the staff is friendly. Definitely a good place to stay.

This is a fantastic property in a great location. Rooms clean, well stocked with everything you need for basic cooking needs, a small dishwasher with tabs provided, washing up liquid and tea towels as well as comfortable beds and very good air conditioning which we needed in the very hot weather. There is a very large wardrobe so you can put the cases in there out of the way as well as ample hanging space. The staff are very helpful and encourage you to help yourself to the free tea, coffee and hot chocolate as well as answering any questions with a smile. There are complimentary toiletries although we took out own but they did look like they were good quality. We used the laundry facilities which were a little pricey but everything was included. There are choices of supermarkets and boulangeries in very close proximity as well as specialist shops on the doorstep. With the large market in the main road literally 2 minutes walk from the property and 5 minutes walk to the metro and tram (and we're not particularly fit or fast walkers) you really do have it all. A last tip, we found eating locally quite expensive and were surprised to find that it was a lot cheaper to eat out in the port area - also a lot prettier.

Very expensive for what it offers
We have been touring around Europe for 7 weeks and arrange our hotels, generally through trip advisor and hotels.com. up to now, everything has been pretty good. At this hotel we were very disappointed. Our apartment was very spacious and clean, but communication with manager, Chal, proved to be unhelpful. We had an issue with bath as plug broken and because it was a weekend, can't be fixed. He suggested I just make a comment here, so I have. Air conditioning is inadequate, but DO NOT ACCEPT a room on the reception level. It is dirty and walls & door chipped and needs urgent attention. Manager agreed and said"make a comment"!

Whenever someone would be outside in the hallway you could hear everything they said and whenever they closed the door you could hear the shutting of the door. Rooms are equipped with fridge and dishwasher so that's nice. Bed is okay too. Balcony is good. Thank you! Internet worked well.

The room/apartment set-up was convenient for multiple travelers. The hotel is about 3 blocks from the Castellane metro stop, a major terminal on the Marseille system. It is in an area where you must walk several blocks to find a restaurant, but there is a wonderful bakery across the street.

The rooms are not overly private. We were on the bottom floor and can hear people above scraping the chairs on the floor and the doors to all rooms don’t allow you to close them quietly. Staff were awesome and our room set up with stove top, fridge and kitchen items were great. Really nice to have a bath that fills up quickly.

Effective service, desk and room cleaning both. One major complaint is the caustic laundry detergent in the laundry facility and no option to use your own, it literally irritated our sinuses and respiratory system (even walking by the laundry room), so foul - everything was great except this.
