Parme - Les Cocons "Very good apartment; good location. Definitely recommended. We will re-book in future.
🙂 Really comfortable apartment, quiet and light. Plenty of space.
Brilliant aircon. Bathtub as well as shower in our one.
Nice view out over that part of Marseille, central location.
Ground level noise from the square not audible.
🙁 Arrival arrangements were not brilliant - the texted instructions on how to access the apartment block via a keypad and then a second locked door were ambiguous due to typos; probably a one-off though.
The plug in the washbasin was stuck clicked-shut, and the plug for the bath didn't provide a seal. Because of slow response I bought new plugs, and left a universal plug for the next guests when we left.
A word of warning: if you are arriving with heavy suitcases the Metro stations in Vieux Port (nearest to Les Cocons) don't have lifts, and no down-escalators either on several flights, so you need to be reasonably fit if you arrive by Metro! Or tricky if you need to use a wheelchair.
Also, the apartment is one floor above the top floor accessible by the lift, so there is a flight of stairs to negotiate."
