My sister and I stayed here for a single night after visiting Provence as we had to fly from Marseille Airport early morning. We had learned from reviews that the hotel was 15 minutes' walk away from the nearest metro station. But coming with luggage around lunchtime, it took us closer to half an hour. Boulevard Rabatau is very long and winds around without being well-signposted, so making sure that we were still on the right road also slowed us down. Even crossing the road to get to the hotel once you are there is a nightmare; the pedestrian crossing was so much before the hotel that we missed it, and the hotel itself is just before a major traffic overpass.
Nevertheless, once there we were happy enough with the hotel. The room was clean and comfortable and free biscuits and tea and coffee were provided. Breakfast was included in the price if I recall correctly, but we had to check out before it was served.
The awkward location of the hotel did however mean that we had to pay a large sum for a taxi to get to the airport for our early morning flight.
On the whole, this is a good enough hotel for the price, but the location means that it's only convenient if you bring your own car, or you have enough time to walk to the metro station at leisure.
