I was so disappointed when I read the reviews on this place AFTER I booked it! I was hoping people were just exaggerating. Lets run through the positives: 5 minutes from train station. That's all. Kind of not positive though because it's in a rough area. The hostel was WAY overpriced. It's pretty dirty, the rooms are tiny! Crammed three... More

I've been staying in hostels in Berlin, Prague, Vienna, Zagreb, Paris and many other places. I normally don't do reviews but it would almost be a crime not to do one about the london connection hostel in Marseille. I walked up the stairs to the 2nd floor, knocked on the door and Max opened, but he would'nt let me in,... More

Stayed here for one night...too long. One of the few hostels I could find in marseille which had space so thought I'd give it a go. As other reviewers have said, this place is about a 3 bedroom apartment filled with bunk beds. No common areas, really cramped hallway and rooms. If you like space then this hostel is not... More

Awful !! Not to go !! We were welcoming with a rude guy telling us that he might not accept us since we were a group of 4 ! ( pretending that this clause was written in the hotel description). The hostel is totally crap (actually a flat turned into a hostel). Three tiny rooms with up to 16 beds... More

My girlfriend stayed here on July 28th for 1 night and all she can say is "yuck". The hostel is located in a bad area, it is hard to find and once you are inside you realize it is very uncomfortable. It is a converted 4 bed apartments with 32 beds so overcrowding is putting it mildly, there are no... More

The only good thing about this place is the owner, he is friendly and helpfu also its close to the main station. The rooms were over crowded with beds leaving no space for luggage, hostel is a 3 bed apartment converted into a hostel that sleeps 24 people! You can feel the springs in the triple story bunk beds.

It's a comfortable place, clean and quiet. Beds are big and cozy :P Really close to the train station: Gare Saint Charles, and 15 min walk from the port and commercial area. I thought the neighborhood wasn't very safe when I first arrived but then I realized It's a very nice place, there's a school around the corner (ecole des... More

This is NOT a hostel. It is the apartment of a dude named Sam. We arrived at the address expecting to find some sort of sign saying 'youth hostel.' Instead we spent 15 minutes walking up and down the street searching and asking neighbors residents in French if they knew if there was a youth hostel nearby (they didn't). Eventually... More
