DEBORAH

the room was full of bugs and we were bitten all night. there we re 2 pillows, 1 a large cushion, which was too large to lie on, and another, very very small one that was hard and memory foam. We had an absolutely awful night. the A/C was broken in the lobby as was the revolving door. the whole experience was awful. I'd absolutely not recommend. For the price, it was awful...

This hotel is conveniently located about 10 mins walk from the main port area and serves a nice breakfast. The downside for our stay was the tiny bedroom and poor mattress which was too soft and dented from use.

We drove in from Nice, late at night. GPS wasn't giving exact location, so I called the hotel The night manager was very helpful in guiding us to the right place. Our room was very comfortable. All of the staff were friendly and helpful. Hotel is located within walking distance of the Old Port and La Panier areas. Parking garage ($$$) is located a street over, but we were able to load and unload the car in front of the hotel. We didn't have the breakfast buffet, but it smelled wonderful.

Avoid this hotel

This hotel is AWFUL! It is in a questionable at best neighborhood. Upon check in we were told that in order to use the pool (we weren’t planning to) we would need to call ahead and ask permission and if granted they’d give us towels. The hotel has bedbugs. Our daughter killed one. I reported it to the manager who replied, “ no it’s not a bed bug, housekeeping took a picture”… we had disposed of the one our daughter killed, so it obviously wasn’t alone. Our room smelled of urine after sightseeing all day. The safe was broken. The manager refused to let us check out early, forcing us to stay. We did, but ended up leaving anyway. The whole experience ruined our time in Marseille.
