You can park your car inside the property for free and breakfast is included. The sunny rooms overlook the landscape and the swimmingpool.

    The hosts are very nice, and the locals are quite helpful if you can't find your way. The room was absolutely gorgeous and it definitely a different experience to stay in an old Bastide instead of your average hostel. Kind of an odd location but it is so worth it to see the quieter side of Marseille and for the lovely walks around the area. Easy to get into town with public transit! My favorite place we stayed in France.
