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.
