Best Western Plus Hôtel La Joliette

The hotel is near the old harbor. You can reach it within 15 minutes of walking. There is a metro Station nearby so you can go anyhwere in town easily. The part of town is not special or very inreresting but compared to other parts cleaner less busy. The rooms are clean and the bed is comfy. The staff is friendly and helpful. You can get a place for your car in the parking lot nearby. It's not cheap but it seems safe. The breakfast is good (pancakes, scrambled eggs, bacon, Croissants, Baguette, toast, fruits, ham, cheese, Nutella, Coffee, hot chocolate, juice) but also a bit expensive (19 Euro per Person and night). The staff is very friendly. The Pool is small. They try to reserve time slots but they seem to give them to more people than just one room. We always had other people (up to 5 plus us coming from four different rooms) with us and that's annoying in the small pool. Apart from that the Pool room has only two loungers. They were always blocked by somebody else. I have never seen anyone actually using them because someone always blocks them and removes their towels when leaving. So if they give time slots, they should make sure that people stick to it. The hotel room itself is a bit small and has not enough space to put your towels and swimming suit to dry. What annoyed me the most: the glas for the toilet brush Was full when we arrived and whenever we used the toilet brush it was soaking wet and left drops of toilet water on the floor. It don't feel like it's my job to empty it with my bare hands after arriving in a new hotel room. All together we liked our hotel a lot and would recommend it for vacation in Marseille
