Good

Would definitely return. There were...

Liked: A surprising oasis inside the streets of Marseille. Lovely garden. We enjoyed our breakfasts outside and drinks on the deck. A good walk up to the local cathedral.
Disliked: Restaurant menu could be a little more extensive.

Good but not mind-blowing

Liked: From the pictures on line, I was expecting to see a 'fancier' place. [Marseilles in general surprised me - lots of graffiti, garbage, and homeless people, plus, 2 girls tried to rob me. My understanding from pretty much everyone I spoke with in Europe (I travelled about 4 weeks) was that the areas where things were rougher (like Marseilles) were dealing with a large influx of migrants for whom they do not have the resources and whose cultural expectations are not those of a western, first-world nation. I am sharing this because this could explain why the hotel was a bit more run down than I would have expected - if you are in an area that is struggling, it's hard to keep up all of the niceties.] The room doors were very confusing to navigate and you are basically captive foodwise. There is nowhere nearby to eat so you have to eat at the hotel. Breakfast was very rushed and no, I was not eating late in the morning. The staff were basically cleaning everything up while I was finishing up and I think, if they could have, they would have moved me somewhere else so they could get the cleaning done. The food was very good though. Most of the staff were very helpful but one woman was clearly annoyed that I existed. And while they advertise the ability to speak English, most of the staff do not have enough English to actually explain anything complex to you. They also do not have a strong understanding of tourist activities - this would be a very helpful skill to add to their repertoire. The room was clean and comfortable.Regardless of the hotel (good or bad), I won't be returning to Marseilles again. It feels like the Downtown Eastside of Vancouver (Canada) (near where I live), although it is not as bad as the DTES in Van. Just not a comfortable feeling place and too much was problematic / wrong for me to really enjoy my time there.
Disliked: The hotel was generally fine - my only issues were around the complexity of the room doors, a rushed breakfast, and a grumpy employee. While there were things I feel like they could improve on (i.e. being better able to explain things to tourists) this wasn't the only city where I had this problem.

Very good

Great
