We are very thankful for your thorough review and great feedback. We would be delighted to rent to you again.
Victor met us at the apartment and explained all the ins and outs. This is a perfect location in Marseille-walking distance to many restaurants, museums, galleries and shops. A metro stop is just around the corner for longer trips ( we went to Aix-en-Provence for a day by train(.The apartment is very clean and comfortable. We would have enjoyed the outdoor seating terrace had the temperature been a bit higher.I highly recommend this spot - great value for the money and quiet!

This was my second time staying at this property. Victor is the best VRBO host. The apartment is spacious with a large private courtyard. The location cannot be beat. I look forward to staying here again.

I realize we have spoken since your last stay with us but that I did not actually respond to your great review! Once again, thank you so much for your kindness: you are the best VRBO guest!
Brilliant stay from start to finish. We cannot rate this property highly enough. Perfect host, perfect location, perfect property. This was our 2nd time here. The property is right in the centre of the old port with a huge selection of bars and restaurants nearby. Great transport links too, with the metro just across the road. Was nice to meet Victor this time after meeting his lovely Mum last year. Don't hesitate to book this fantastic accommodation if you get the chance.
An absolutely fabulous apartment right in the heart of Vieux Port with good access to public transport, restaurants, bars and historical attractions. Victor is an amazing host and there's absolutely no amenity or facility lacking. The rooms are all a good size and furnished with taste. The kitchen is extremely well equipped and includes tea, coffee etc. Bedroom is spacious and as many towels and extra bedding you could wish for. Without doubt the nicest and finest place we have stayed in France and we are only sad our stay had to end. If Marseille beckons again we will definitely stay in this wonderful apartment. Faultless.

The apartment is in an ideal location close to the port, restaurants, bars, supermarkets, boulangeries and shops. The apartment itself is very well equipped with lovely outdoor space and a very comfortable bed. Excellent communication with host and we will return. We can't fault it.

Many thanks for your review. We are delighted that everything has been up to par. We also look forward to seeing you in Marseille again.
Handy to everything. Only negative is street noise in the early hours of the morning.

Thank you for your comments. Despite the soundproofed double-glazed windows, I have to agree that street noise from the garbage collectors & street cleaners can sometimes be heard in the early morning. Alas, this goes with most places at the heart of any city center.
The location cannot be beat! The host, Victor is the best. I hope to stay in the apartment again. So much space to enjoy and the blackout screen on the bedroom window ensures a good, long night of sleep.

Relive the magic of Marseille in this historic town! This lovely flat sits in the heart of the city’s
historic sites with excellent food options and public transit just steps away. The port sits beautifully with its many sailing masts dotting the horizon. Victor adds a personal touch and is excellent at communicating.

very good place to stay in Marseille
The flat is quiet and centrally located, we had beautiful views on the sunset. The terrace is wonderful! The bed is comfortable, we slept very well, and M. Gay was extremly friendly and helpful - we could not have found a better flat for a sunny spring week in Marseille.

We have also thoroughly appreciated your time as our guests from your calls on arrival at the airport informing us were on time to the orderly fashion in which you left the apartment. And your overall friendliness. We will be delighted to see you again!
We just loved the view from the balcony and the apartment was in a perfect location for exploring Marseilles and the surrounding area. We spent most of our time on the back terrace. The washing machine was a good bonus. It was nice to have a personal welcome from victor and get his advice.

You have been wonderful guests and we are glad you had such a good 10 days in Marseille. We look forward to meeting you again.
Roland was a wonderful host. The apartment was immaculate, well furnished, and a great central location on the the harbor. Bakery, coffee shops, and supermarket all close by. Parking garage very close and convenient.
Short walk to endless restaurants. Roland gave us many exceptional recommendations for dinning.
Would definitely put this on our list of apartments when we return to Marseille.

Many thanks for your comments. And we will be delighted to host you when you are in Marseille again. Enjoy the rest of your trip!
Met by agent on arrival who gave us the lowdown on the accommodation and local amenities. Excellent location in the heart of the city a few yards from the old port. accommodation perfect for our needs, well stocked kitchen (utensils) which lead to a outside living area, protected from the frequent winds and sun, ideal social area. comfortable bed and lounge area. Marseille vibrant bustling. easy access to bus, metro and ferry services. Would not think twice of booking again.

I am so glad to read how much you appreciated your stay in Marseille and in the apartment. We would also be very glad to host you again.
The flat is very well equipped and perfectly located next to the Old Harbour, with shops, cafés, restaurants, busses and metro nearby.
Check-in is well organized. Victor was very responsive and answered all questions. He was very helpful when we arrived late in the evening and had trouble opening the key box.
We particularly loved the great roof terrace; even though the liveliness of the streets is close, the terrace is a quiet and seclusive place to spend all day (and all night).
Definitively recommended!

Thank you so much for your detailed review. We are extremely grateful for your appreciation and glad that you had a great holiday. We are looking forward to welcoming you again soon.
Awesome location, comfortable and clean, fantastic owner
The apartment is steps from the end of Vieux Port--the harbor can be seen from the sitting room and bedroom windows, while the terrace is on the city side. There are dozens of great restaurants within walking distance, as well as little food stores, Saturday markets, wine and gourmet shops. The owner, Victor, met us at the apartment, gave us tons of useful information about the area, and even helped us find the car park nearby. Can't say enough about his hospitality and help! It's wonderful to have the assistance of an English-speaking local when you're in a strange place for the first time. Highly recommended and we can't wait to return.

Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, communication
Having to use the sketchy VRBO site makes communication with the host very difficult.
This was our third trip to Marseille and this apartment surpassed all our expectations. The location is superb a minute from the harbor and all the local restaurants and bars. The apartment is very well appointed with plenty of kitchen equipment, towels, and even hangers! so many owners seem to think that guests don't bring clothes with them on vacation! The apartment also has a great terrace with a spot for afternoon sunbathing. We enjoyed our breakfast on the terrace every morning. It was very warm during our stay and having full air con was a bonus. Finally, Roland is a great host very helpful and friendly and quick to respond to any questions we had. I would really recommend this accommodation as a great place to stay.
