The maitre d'hotel was fantastic, very welcoming, demonstrating the after hours locks, and providing a map and list of things to do in the area. My only caveat is the office is a bit hard to find within the residential-shopping complex. I recommend parking (at least first) next to the dentist office and walking the short distance upward along the front of the sloping driveway to the building entrance. Further, one must walk into the ground floor a bit to find the proper office suite. Just be prepared to do that.
We missed our check in time because of flight 2 hour delay, when we arrived we couldn’t find anyone and the phone number we had was a message in French. We eventually found the office inside the building, by waiting for someone to come out as you needed a to type in a number to open the door. Other than that it was comfortable practical, and staff were helpful. It was a half hour walk to the Orange Velerdrome, or the beach, which suited us.
The location is great, easy to walk to shops, parks and the sea side. Very easy parking so super convenient with a car. The property itself is ok but the room was really run down, lots of wear and tear. Bed is not really comfortable, some dust and dead bugs under the table and bed. I was wondering why the price was lower than it used to and know I know.
Great location, easy parking and good size studio. The staff is great and super helpful too! Only one washing machine and drier for a lot of people which makes it hard to use as it it always already being used.
Wonderful Apartment Hotel
For us, this was really the perfect place to stay! I don't usually even write hotel reviews but it was exactly what we needed. We decided last minute to get a hotel instead of staying with family and this ended up being in the same apartment complex as them! It was quiet and the location, while not downtown for ideal tourism, is right on a bus line, walking distance (~15 minutes) to the beach, with a nice shopping center and grocery store just down the road. The apartment itself had a little kitchenette with fridge, a spacious bathroom, living room, and bedroom (not totally separated - no door between bedroom and living room) and even a balcony. We never saw any other guests and weren't ever disturbed. It's not a hotel so there isn't a concierge at a front dest 24/7, but we knew that ahead of time and were able to get the door code and then picked up the key from a drop box. We'd definitely stay there again.
clean room but not so good service
The room was clearly left unfinished by the cleaners, with lamps on the bed, toiled seat disassembled and chairs on the table. When we pointed this out, we were moved to another room but we wasted half an hour in all this between waiting and moving up and down with suitcases. The reception was often unavailable for queries. I had to ask twice to get an hairdryer, the first day I was promised they would bring one but that did not happen. Very strange and unpleasant that at check out they require guests to empty the bin and take the bin bag in a dirty bin room outside the hotel. The tiny toiletry provided was definitely not enough.
Great potential, beds let it down.
I would like to reiterate some of the comments made by other reviewers and add my own. Firstly, it is rather far away from the city and beach so you will either need a car or have to rely on a bus service (we personally didn't mind that and enjoyed the area). Secondly, the main bed we had was very, very firm and many people may take issue with getting a good nights sleep on it, especially in combination with the pillows supplied which were fat, synthetic? and offer very little support. Also note that the bed is very short so I found my feet stuck out over the edge (And I am only 5'10" - 180cm tall). Thirdly, the sofa bed we had was so worn out that our eldest child didn't want to sleep in it as it sagged and didn't support his body and back properly, and given the amounts of exposed metal and gaps, I wouldn't advise a small child to sleep on it either as it could be potentially dangerous. I wish I could have written a more positive review as the lady who checked us in was very helpful and very nice, and the area offered great potential for a nice family location with great amenities for food shopping etc. It could have been a nice little apartment to stay in, but the worn out sofa bed and the main bed let it down to the point that we wouldn't consider returning unless we knew these issues had been addressed/replaced.
For what we wanted to do, this was an excellent hotel.
We stayed at this hotel for 4 nights as it was close to Mazargues where we were involved in family research. If you wanted to use this hotel to visit the tourist sites of Marseille, you will find it less convenient, although public transport is so good that it really is no problem to commute into town (approx 25 mins to downtown, bus 23 or 45 to Rond Point du Prado, then metro. The nearest local beaches are a 25 minute walk or short bus ride, the bus stops and big supermarket are close by. Staff were friendly and helpful, the apartment excellent with a nice sunny patio and very quiet. The only negatives were the hard bed and the advertised Restaurant which was permanently closed! First time entry to the Residence is via a key panel if the door is locked- press "Appeler" to contact reception, once you have a key, everything is easier. Would not recommend using a car in the city unless you like permanent gridlock. Overall this was an excellent hotel/apartment which we would be happy to use again.
Lediglich die Ausziehcouch war etwas quitschig, sonst aber alles top. Wir hatten ein kleines Apartment hinten raus mit Balkon, da ist es schön ruhig.
Studio spacieux et très propre

Super séjour entre amis !
Hébergement calme bien située adaptée aux familles
Mon séjour c tres bien passée l'hôtel était confortable et surtout calme et personnel tres gentil. On se sent cher nous dès que on est dans l'appartement et personne ne vous casse la tête.
Parfait
Pas très propre
Nettoyage de chambres superficielle
Cela aurait pu être mieux
Résidence assez bien placée mais attention le gps renvoie quelques mètres plus loin ce qui pose souci aux livreurs par exemple . Appartement spacieux mais très froid,triste . Télé compliquée à faire fonctionner ( il faut utiliser la télécommande du boîtier à côté mais ce n'est expliqué nulle part ) ( L'accueil ferme à 19h ). Il est indiqué que la porte de la résidence est fermée le soir et pas de code ou la clef pour l'ouvrir ( pas pratique pour aller chercher le livreur ,peur de rester enfermé dehors !!) .
Hebergement propre
Quartier calme rafraichissement des peintures a prévoir
Personnel très accueillant et disponible. Séjour parfait
Hôtel ou résidence hôtelière : ce n’est vraiment p
Il ne faut pas séjourner dans un établissement de ce type comme on va dans un hôtel : le service y est minimum et la demande d’une caution de 300€ m’a bien étonné ; peut être y est fait mention lorsque l’on décrit cet établissement mais sans doutes en petits caractères et tout en bas La toute petite cuisine aménagée dans le couloir d’entree Ainsi que le canapé lit n’ajoute en rien au confort de ce qui n’est en fait qu’une chambre d’hotel 2 étoiles qui n’offre pas le service D’une présence permanente Qui est le propre d’un hôtel Enfin last but not least une odeur quasi pestilentielle nous a surpris en ouvrant la porte : la chambre était au rez-de-chaussée de chaussée et profitait sans doute de sa proximité avec les égouts Je ne craignais qu’une chose, c’etait de devoir batailler pour récupérer ma caution ; fort heureusement le jour même j’ai reçu contre toute attente, notification de la levée de ma caution. J'avais quand même Pris toutes les photos nécessaires à une éventuelle « négociation » sur un état des lieux litigieux. Voilà mon expérience sur un séjour dont je ne me souviendrai pas avec plaisir Cordialement Jean Jacques Samuel
Un séjour des plus satisfaisants à bien des égards
Une arrivée bien gérée pour notre 2ème séjour. Un prolongement de séjour envisagé et confirmé qui nous cependant coûté plus cher alors que le marché affichait des prix plus bas. La vaisselle un peu chiche et usée Une literie « un peu »dure. L’ensemble du séjour a toutefois été des plus corrects
Bien pour séjour affaire
Calme, propre et récent, mais lit canapé bruyant et pas très confortable.
Résidence proche escale BORELY
Rken a dire propre Parking
Service au top
Équipe très conciliante et très ouverte
A conseiller vivement.

Bonne situation
Literie un peu dure canapé lit
Die Lage der Unterkunft ist sehr gut. Parkplatz ist vorhanden.
Etablissement proche des commerces et de transports et calme
établissement proche des commoditées et de la plage
propre
Au 8 eme arrondissement très calme , centre commercial à 5 mn à pied , hôtel propre
Accueil très décevant et manque de propreté.
J'ai informé les responsables que l'appartement n'avait pas été balayé et que je souhaitais que le nécessaire soit fait. Ils m'ont répondu que le sol avait été nettoyé avant mon arrivé et rien n'a été fait pendant les 3 jours qu'à duré mon séjour. Yne seule serviette mise en fisposition pendanr les 3 jours. Le personnel d'accueil n'est pas sympathique. Tres déçue.
Bra lägenhetshotell
Lägenhetshotell som var relativt bra. Ingen bra restaurang på bekvämt gångavstånd men skönt med gratis parkering i en annars kaotiskt stad för bilar. Bra AC i lägenheten. Inte fullt så bra kök om man vill göra egen mat.
à conseiller
bien situé calme
Tranquillitè
La chambre ou nous etions etait trés calme.Coupe Catherine
Très bon hotel, proche plage, parking gratuit
Très bon séjour, chambre propre, accueil agréable, rien à redire
Aucun problème
Très bien mais manque des volets
arrivée tardive mais on m'avait communiqué par sms les codes d'acces et dispositif pour recupérer mes clés.......... Autrement j'ai trouvé acceuil pas trés souriant un peu sec , mais correct
Endroit calme, bien entretenu, spacieux. Un sèche cheveux dans la chambre serait un plus mais très bon séjour.
Résidence propre et bien équipée
Résidence très calme et bien entretenue. Seul point à améliorer : le frigo fait trop de bruit !
Impeccable
AUCUN reproche à faire pour l'établissement. La responsable est tout simplement à l'écoute et très sympathique et qui a beaucoup de charmes
Bon rapport qualité / prix
Un accueil sympathique, un studio simple mais propre et du calme (pour studio donnant sur le jardin) !!!!
Très bon séjour Àvec visite des calanques à pied puis en kayak... Visite de cassis et de la ciotat en plus de Marseille !
Preis/Leistungsverhältnis passt überhaupt nicht
kein Frühstücksangebot; Appartment musste selbst gereinigt werden; Müll musste selbst entsorgt werden
Za ponad 300 euro za dobę oczekiwałbym, że przynajmniej nie będę musiał sam sprzątać pokoju ...
super sejour,quartier calme et sécurisé .
Piacevole ritorno a Marsiglia
Con la mia famiglia di 4 persone(due bambini in età scolare) abbiamo passato tre notti in un bilocale molto confortevole, spazioso, arredato con gusto e silenzioso della zona di Marsiglia che preferiamo perchè più tranquilla ma comunque comoda per raggiungere ogni luogo di interesse della città, anche con i mezzi pubblici (fermata del bus davanti al residence). Molto apprezzata la lavastoviglie. Se posso fare un appunto: capisco limitare le stoviglie per non permettere utilizzi non consentiti agli utenti, ma 4 piatti, 4 forchette, 4 bicchieri sono un po' risicati per 4 persone anche per gestire solo light dinner e breakfast come fatto da noi!
Hôtel proche de ma famille
Rien à dire Tout était parfait Décoration sobre, grand appartement, calme

Late check-in could be an issue (thanks to reviewers) but following up with management it went very smooth. Room is needed touch-ups for sure. My biggest issue is cigarettes odor in room. It is non-smoking room but smells like ashtray. Needs fresh paint and old stained curtains to be removed!!!
