We were in France when they won The World Cup! Things were INSANE! After we partied quite a bit on the streets in the city we actually wanted find a place to stay a little outside of town, where it would be a tad quieter.
We found this place on Expedia last minute in more of a residential neighborhood where they had free,secured parking, which is what we were also looking for.
The owners who spoke some English stayed late and waited for us to arrive, which was nice because there were a few keys given, as well as some codes, including one to get into the gate to the parking lot. A lot of responsibility haha
The hotel is being remodeled room by room so it doesn't disturb business. While we were placed in an older room, it was fine. Certainly nothing special, but fine for a quick late check in/early check out.
Comfy larger beds, tiny bathroom with stall shower, but with a hair dryer and some toiletries.
Flatscreen tv with satellite cable.
Tile floor, no carpet! Yay!
On site restaurant.
Very quiet!
It was close to a few highly rated restaurants, but all were closed the night of the World Cup! We resorted to the only thing opened nearby at that was a 24 hr King Burger, or Burger King, so that's an option if you stay here and have late night munchies. It's just across the way.
Nothing was wrong with the place. It's fine and priced appropriately. I just don't see many people staying in this particular area unless you're stopping in transit from one locale to the next. It's 30 minutes to Marseille via a highway. It is also not far from the Mediterranean though!
