Liked: Staff & service, room comfort
Disliked: Cleanliness
Wouldn't recommend, rooms aren't fully clean. Bathroom- found a lot of hair from previous clients. Stay away.
Nos dieron una habitación sin aire acondicionado y ya sabían que no tenía aire pues había un ventilador de mano ya ahí y luego nos dieron otro
Nos cambiaron de habitación y tampoco tenía aire acondicionado
Nos ofrecieron desayuno para compensar pero le dejamos saber que nos interesaba el confort no la comida
No es un hotel 5 estrelllas y a unos pasos del hotel hay siempre personas bebidas y se ve muy mal ambiente aunque nunca tuvimos ningún problema
Hotel Ligo had a fun, colorful design. The room and lobby were very clean. Blackout blinds covered the windows at night. The bed was comfortable.
However, the hotel needed more staff. When we arrived at breakfast, half the tables were covered by other guests' dirty dishes. The plates had run out. One of the coffee machines had no mugs. On the second day, the eggs were cold (not room temperature -- actually cold!). There was a long line at checkout because the front desk had just one worker.
I would stay here again, but not at full price.

Hôtel sympa très bien situé au calme et a dix minutes du vieux port
La chambre est très grande et propre avec un lit super confortable avec une terrasse donnant sur un petit patio extérieur très sympa.
Point négatif : pas de prise dans la salle de bain et quelques détails qui devrait être normalement a faire comme voir sur les photos.

Hizmet çok güzeldi fakat odalar fotoğraflardaki kadar iyi değildi. Fakat genel olarak çalışanlardan ve hizmetten çok memnun kaldık.
Très bien situé proche des transports et du vieux port. Terrasse très basique.Rideau impossible à descendre. Baignoire au lieu de douche. Confort et spacieux
Emplacement très bien, transport collectif tout près, près de vieux port!
Ascenseur souvent défectueux, déjeuner très cher( 16 euros) par personne, dans la chambre, les poubelles pas souvent vidées, le balai pas passé!
Superbe hôtel, hyper bien situé à Marseille, non loin d’une rue commerçante. La chambre est spacieuse, propre et très bien décorée. Environnement calme et personnel agréable.
