There was no problem, even when we changed the room-mates couple of times. There is internet connection and kitchen 4 everybody.The beakfast was fine for me.Coffee, jam, bread and milk soup.Bathroom was cleaned from the sand everyday.The only problem you can have there are people who can be varios. But that's life.

This is really good choice. Staff is friendly and willing to give and advice. All the rooms are super clean, spacious and each has own bathroom. Breakfasts are decent and serve as a good occasion to chat with the other travellers. The interior of Vertigo hostel is very very cozy, the atmosphere is charming :)

The staff was very nice and helpful. We had a great stay. It was close to the water which was awesome. Worth it for the money we spent.

Very clean, well kept hostel. The staff is very helpful, and general atmosphere is a social one. the hostel has two buildings in the old port. I would recommend the second one. It has a better kitchen and a larger common area.

Given the price of the accommodation, some ham and cheese could be provided during breakfast.

This is an amazing hostel. The staff are all very friendly and very helpful. The rooms are clean and spacious. It is located amazingly close to a lot of the sights of Marseille. And it is relatively cheap for all that you get within its price. Definitely would recommend staying here.

The hostel was good, clean, I booked a room with 4 beds. I was travelling alone. There were other people in room. I couldn't get into my room until 3 p.m. Even if I was fill in a form before I came, I wrote there I would check in at 8 a.m. I waited a lot.

The private room was great, nice bathroom and separate toilet and towels provided. Vertigo B is especially nice with a huge living area and kitchen.

Lovely, spacious rooms and common room, very nice staff and everything was super clean. A very nice touch were wooden lockers - the nicest lockers I've seen so far. The kitchen facility and breakfast were really good too. Above all else - this is a very safe and clean place. Thank you for a lovely stay!

Personally I thought it would've been nice to have a friendlier atmosphere in the common rooms. Although this comes at the trade off of creating more noise and annoyance for those wanting peace and quiet, the hostel felt more like a hotel to me. Also, while the service was much appreciated, I think that a minimum of 7 euros to get your clothes washed is a little expensive. It would've been nice to get my clothes washed at a cheaper price. All in all, a fantastic stay though.

Very clean, friendly staff, great kitchen and social area. The only negative, the toilet in our room was broken. Other than that minor negative, I highly recommend this hostel.
