Maisons du Monde Hôtel & Suites - Marseille Vieux Port

Maisons du Monde Hôtel & Suites - Marseille Vieux Port

8/10 Good
"Note that if you are in the suites you will need to walk about 2 blocks to get to the suites. The building is clean and well maintained. Although they had AC when we arrived, it was still warm outside but they had transferred to heat so the AC was not available. The rooms were hot so we had to open the windows which made it terrible to sleep because of the noise and mosquitoes. Not ideal for a vacation. Also, the shower doesn’t have a door and splashes all over the floor. Poor planning, would be nice to have a curtain or something. Otherwise, very walkable and close to many restaurants and stores."
