Description Vieux-Port Reverie: Marseille

Steps from the Old Port, this Marseille studio sits at the heart of one of the city's most celebrated neighbourhoods. Bars and restaurants are just a two-minute walk from the front door – even if sightseeing isn't on the agenda, you'll have plenty to discover. Inside, a hand-drawn coastal mural adds a pop of personality, and though it's a studio, it feels bright and well-appointed. The Vieux-Port metro station is a two-minute walk, and Gare Saint-Charles is reachable in ten minutes by public transport, making this a surprisingly practical base for exploring the city.

Home truths:
* The apartment is on the first floor of a building with no lift, so you'll be carrying luggage up the stairs on arrival and departure.
* There's no private parking here, but you won't need a car in this location. Restaurants, landmarks, and public transport are all within a short walk.
*The communal areas of this building might appear a little worn and dated in parts.
*Given the home's central spot, expect to hear some street noise throughout your stay.
