Extras should be on the listing!
It's a unique property in a great location with a lovely view BUT it's not for everybody, so BEWARE!! No real bed! 50+ small slippery steps to go down from the outside to get to the small room and toilet that is unfortunately not very well maintained. A fresh coat of paint would make this place more welcoming!
The view on a sunny day would turn all these negatives into positives, and in a few days the initial shock will go away and one could adopt.
However, the dishonest add on fees was very upsetting. I made the reservation on 2/8/23 for two adults and made the full payment. I got an msg from the owner 2 weeks later asking for 45 more Euros for linen and cleaning. After I made the train booking and inform that I will arrive @ 8.00 p.m., I am told that it will be 20 more for late check in. Saida who checked us in was lovely, but when we told her that we will use the pullout sofa and the bunk to sleep (we paid for two adults), she informs Dominique by phone and was told that we need to pay another 20 the following day since we are not sleeping together and sharing the bunkbed. Listing states if you have 3 persons there will be an extra 20 charge, but this was a shock. If Dominique wants to charge for all these separately, she should be honest and have it on the listing.
We were there for the Rugby World Cup, accommodations were tight and we were planning to rough out., but this stay was a poor experience to a otherwise lovely and fun visit to Marseille!
Vive La France!!
