Excellent hotel in a good location, with a friendly staff and an excellent breakfast
Pros:

This is a lovely hotel located in the old port area. the location is excellent with easy access to the main attractions and to metro and bus links. The continental breakfast was outstanding and the room, while small was very comfortable.

Cons:

There isn't much to write here. Everything went well, and I was happy with everything in the hotel. Nothing to complain about.

Pros:

Colazione semplice ma di qualità
Va solo sostituito lo spremiagrumi

Cons:

Più accessori in bagno (cuffia doccia) e visto che siamo a Marsiglia, prodotti locali!

Le Vieux-Port est un endroit très sympathique mais pas pour y dormir...
Pros:

La vue sur le Vieux-Port, la disponibilité et l'amabilité du personnel. Le petit-déjeuner buffet.

Cons:

Le fait de proposer des chambres avec vue sur une minuscule cours intérieure avec impossibilité d'accéder à une quelconque aération puisqu'il s'agit en fait d'une "verrière". Lorsque j'ai exprimé le fait de ne pas pouvoir dormir dans ces conditions, la dame de la réception m'a alors montré une autre chambre, avec vue à l'arrière cette fois mais...face à une pompe-ventilateur qui faisait un bruit continu! Impossible pour moi également. Finalement, j'ai pu obtenir une chambre avec vue sur le Vieux-Port mais avec un surcoût dont je n'avais évidemment pas tenu compte dans mon budget vacances. Heureusement que la dame a tout de même pu négocier avec le gérant pour qu'il me fasse une ristourne.
Cette chambre était satisfaisante concernant la possibilité d'ouvrir la fenêtre et donc d'aérer mais...heureusement que j'avais pris mes boules-quies! L'animation en dessous de notre chambre était telle que sans boules-quies il aurait été impossible de dormir avant 3h du matin...
