Casa Ammirati Apartments

Good

  : Nice spacious apartment. Ours went to the back so no noise from the road.
  : It is a little bit away from everything and each trip means walking up and down hills. Busses are only running until 21h /21.30h and not too frequent on weekends even less.

Very Poor

  : The neighbourhood is not safe at all. Our car was parked in the underground garage and was vandalized in the first night that we arrived. The property doesnt assume responsability for the parking lot. We supposed to go to Spain from there, but our holiday stopped at Casa Ammirati, Marseille.

  : The rooms and courtyard were wonderful and clean. The neighbourhood was a concern for us arriving late with a family. It was unexpected and not on any reviews.

  : the flats are spacious and offer everything one needs for a stay in Marseille, bed was comfy, shower was very good. the garden with pool offers a break from the buzzing city. it feels like you land somewhere else. the cherry on top are the hosts, Franck, Gilbert and the two small dogs. their warm welcome makes you feel like you are visiting friends. the underground parking place is also very welcome.
  : nothing not to like

  : I liked the hosts, Frank and Gilbert, very much. They have 2 lovely small dogs and a cat (the cat may have been a visitor). The room had everything we needed. The hosts put on a great breakfast, much more than we could eat. There's a bus stop 2 minutes walk from the apartment and the nearest metro station is just a 10 minute walk away. The dip pool was very welcome at the end of a hot day.
  : There were fans, but no air-conditioning in the room we were in. It felt a little humid at times. The neighbourhood is not a glamourous one. I would not advise moving the car once it is the underground parking (located in the next street) if you are not familiar with driving in France. Beware of mosquitos in the garden area.

  : The host, Franck, is a caring and warm individual. Very welcoming and helpful. Very hospitable! We also loved Raymond and ZaZa, his adorable miniature pinschers. The property is a well-loved and tended, truly a hidden gem! There is a very nice pool, the interior patio is lush and cozy, especially at night with fairy lights and lamps everywhere. After some guidance from Franck, we decided to walk about 20 mins. to Longchamps then caught a trolley to the waterfront and enjoyed an excellent, leisurely lunch outside. Later we strolled around the Vieux-Port de Marseille (inlet) to 2 Quai du Port and took the little train tour (Les Petits Trains de Marseille) as our time was limited and walking around would not have allowed us to see very much. It was so worth it! The World Cup of Rugby matches last weekend had the city hopping with lots of fans from the UK - the atmosphere was a lot of much fun! In the evening, we did a little food shopping at a local Carrefour before returning and had a nice, light meal at the apartment. Slept great and our *taxi picked us up on time to get us to the airport by 6:30 a.m. *(I gave Franck the driver's mobile number and hopefully he still has it - a very professional young guy named Ahmed who loves to practice his English. If you need a cab, please give this hard-working family man a try.)
  : Shower was a bit challenging - very hot water and overhead shower head was inoperable (for us). However, the hand-held shower head worked fine. Care is required due to temperature of water. No AC but with both fans running, we slept very well. Pillows were just a bit hard for me, but that is a personal preference.
