Toyoko Inn Marseille Saint Charles
Room was more than suitable and location was a few minutes from st Charles station easy travel to airport and to metro around the city. A major bonus was the electronic toilet in the room who my fellow guest Kevin vaughan said was surprisingly enjoyable but it tickles a bit.

Encore un séjour très agréable dans votre hôtel. Petit bémol, jamais dans la chambre 230. Faire attention car moquette tachée +++, prise lampadaire sortie de son emplacement, connectique télé décollée. Sinon personnel toujours aussi serviable et agréable
