Has the expected amenities plus some (full coffee service, utensils, plates, microwave, small refrigerator) - helping us to be comfortable during our 6 night stay. The view of the sea from the terrace is amazing, as the rooms are up a flight of stairs. Hosts are wonderful people, so welcoming, kind and gracious! Nice neighborhood, with easy access to main street that has the bus, shops and restaurants. The bus is a direct route to Vieux Port, for sightseeing and the metro stop.

The location is extremely safe and convenient to walk to public transport to access all areas of the city and beyond. Quiet, sunny, artsy, with an amazing view through tall shuttered french windows across an idylic setting of old world Marseille. The studio comes with a comfortable bed, desk/lamps,small library and fully equipped with a mini kitchen, but plenty of reasons to eat out at the many local restaurants/bars and cafes.Walking distance to amazing coastal areas loved by the French for swimming and sunbathing. And the bests hosts ever. We cannot wait to return. ##### Robyn S.

Hosts Ray and Claude are so sweet and hospitable. I even went to the film festival together with Ray, and for questions or help she was always reachable. For the rest the apartment is in the best neighborhood of Marseille I’ve been told by many. Close to the sea and also walkable to the center. The room and bathroom are very simple but has enough what you need. The balcony and view are amazing. Definitely return here when I go to Marseille ##### Bob W.

Returning home in the evening felt some what like coming home as the apartment owns a quite personal and lovely style. We used the small table to take our breakfast and dinner out on the little balcony, eating out in one of those plenty charming vegetarian Restaurants. And - probably as important as feeling comfortable in the flat: Ray and Claude were so very kind and warm-hearted, always open to give advises and ready to help - which made us feel very welcome! If we were to return to Marseille, we would most probably rent this flat again, I guess :-D. Merci à vous! ##### Louise K.
