This hotel needs an upgrade

Not a "bad" hotel. It is about a 20-minute walk to the old harbor and the staff is friendly, helpful enough. That being said, the room we were in had old appliances, only one (counter-intuitively located) outlet. There was no shampoo and no towels (I had to come down to the reception and ask). Also, while the web page stated that there would be a free internet connection, the router was not working.

Good Value - Good Location

I spent two days in Marseille for work purposes and the hotel was ideal for a place of rest as I knew I would be out for the majority of my time there. Conveniently located, nice staff and the room was basic but clean and the shower was good. Only down side was there was one socket and not enough hangers albeit good value and served it's purpose well.

Decent hotel for short stay

Rooms were basic and dated but suitable for a short stay. A 5 minute walk to the tram stop downhill and a 10-15 minute walk uphill to the subway.

Simple, friendly hotel.

Very friendly service from the reception staff, room was clean and comfortable, if a little rough round the edges. Served us just fine for a quick one-night stay in Marseille.

Nice place to stay - in a good part of the city. Can't ask for more given the price. Would recommend to anyone not too fussed about the hotel, more interested in exploring the city. Staff were also very helpful and informative.

For the budget traveler

This hotel is situated in a neighborhood, with a few restaurants nearby. The shower is tiny and has no door, which is really strange. There is no AC. It wasn't very clean.

Pas mal !

Il est vrai que l'hôtel ne paie pas de mine. Il est vieillot. Mais j'ai passé une très bonne nuit. La climatisation fonctionnait très bien, la baignoire était grande et agréable. J'ai bien dormi. Et l'accueil positif. Bref une nuit plus que correcte pour un prix défiant toute concurrence.

Un paio di notti, non di più

Camera doppia con letto matrimoniale e bagno in camera è diventata cameretta singola con WC in comune. Il personale ha detto di aver cercato di contattarmi ma senza risultato. Hanno quindi venduto la mia camera ma , per ogni evenienza tenuto una cameretta di emergenza. Tutto bene dato che il mio soggiorno era limitato ad una sola notte ma in altre circostanze ci sarebbe stato da discutere.

Hotel pour le strict minimum

Personnels accueillants et agreables. J'étais au troisième étage, l'ascenseur est un peu vieux voire très vieux, j'avais un peu peur en le prenant pour la descente. La chambre mesurait 12m2, le strict minimum, un lit, une chaise et une petite chaise. C'est pour les gens qui veulent juste dormir dans une chambre et non dehors. Quelques voisins bruyants. Les toilettes sont l'endroit que j'ai beaucoup speciamement le baignoire. Au niveau de la fenetre des toilettes, des réparations seraient mieux. Pour ceux qui aiment le luxe, ce n'est pas le bon hôtel.
