Good location but could have used a thorough cleaning. Left over foods from prior guests with accompanying mouse droppings in kitchen drawers. No detergent for dishwasher or washing machine, no paper towels, no hand soap or shampoo, no coffee; what was provided was dish liquid soap, can of roach spray, toilet bowl cleaner, two cartons of dry dishwasher soap that got wet and hardened, coffee filters and tea, and one roll of toilet paper the host brought with him. The two towels were pretty coarse and the only ones provided. The space was large with OK furnishings but no tourist maps or info in English and the building gives an institutional vibe when going through the lobby. It seemed to us that a prostitute might have been living upstairs, late night traffic (midnight to four AM) with moaning, groaning, and loud voices. The unit could have been better but it seemed the host wanted to maximize return with least possible effort, reminded us to clean and vacuum on the way out. It was OK for a week and the price was fair but would probably look elsewhere next time.

Very nice stay. The rediscovery of Marseille has delighted us, the seaside is splendid on all sides, some quarters of the interior are very nice too. But we did not see everything, the stay was too short and the heat required breaks ...
The apartment is very nice, spacious, it is comfortable, and well equipped. Very well located also, close to the Old Port.
very nice week in Marseille.
Housing ideally placed near the old port, shops and transport.
Very warm welcome from the owner very available, comfortable bedding and clean and well equipped apartment.

"This is an excellent apartment for anyone who wants to explore the city of Marseille. We found the apartment to be very spacious with a large living area and a kitchen which is stocked with all you need to cook your own meals. The apartment is close to the old port, restuarants and there are a number of good Patisseries nearby. We met the owners who were very helpful and seemed to be genuinely nice people.
The washing machine was very useful to us since we were on a long holiday. We would not hesitate to stay here again."

We were charmed by the city of Marseille and the apartment by its clarity and location. Ideal starting point to discover the city and its surroundings. Thank you to Mr NARBONNE for all his explanations, very nice welcome.
For us it was a discovery of Marseille and a real favorite, we will come back
