    Great for short stay in the city

    Indeed hostel is literally next to the church so it can be disturbing to hear bell every hour (for me it was ok). Owner is very professional and fast in reaction, just had mixed feelings after short interaction with girl from my dorm supposedly managing it in name of the owner (wanted to ask a question but felt she is irritated by me asking - not very customer oriented)

    Great central location, comfortable bed and clean bathrooms, attracting right type of travelers. Owner is professional and breakfast was simple but tasty (bread, jam, butter). I received what I expected :)

    Nothing all good

    Good location close to the port. Friendly helpful staff. Dormitory was a small room. Staff encouraged visitors to engage and socialise together creating a friendly homely atmosphere.

    The hostel really does feel like home! Since it’s small you get to know everyone quickly. There are only 2 dorms of 6, each with a kitchen & bathroom, plus a nice outdoor seating area. Free breakfast of fresh bread & jam was a bonus! I would highly recommend if you’re looking for a quiet yet friendly place 😊

    In a shared room of 6 beds, my room was quite noisy, and people walking past outside could be heard

    The location was great, right in the heart of town, and the hostel has only a couple of rooms and a courtyard, which was quite nice and private. This is definitely not a big hostel experience, which I certainly enjoyed. Although quite simple, the breakfast was really good (baguettes and jam)

    The only advices I have is to really emphasize guests bring noise cancelling headphones or really good ear plugs.(or even provide free ear plugs). The church which is literally just across the little alley/street rings every hour (on the hour) and is quite disruptive of a good night's sleep. Since they are male and female shared rooms, you can hang a towel or sheet to make a privacy curtain on your bunk if you are on the lower bunks.

    The location is so perfect for accessing the Calenques, beaches, restaurants, and shopping. The whole vibe of this little hostel is chill, cute, and family owned. Both rooms have great little kitchens with all the things to cook if you prefer to stay in and make a meal. I suggest taking your towel (and products) out of the bathroom because other guests might use them since towels are not provided or available. The courtyard/public space for hanging out is absolutely adorable. With so many little plants and seats and the decoration is really fun. Gathering around the outside table to share the (complimentary) breakfast was a highlight of my stay.

    The church bells ring 24hrs a day. However when your tired you will fall asleep.Someone needs to talk to the priest.

    It was full of character and with charming hosts that where wonderful.

    The rooms did get quite hot at night as there was no AC, and the church bells were quite loud but of course this is not the hostel’s fault :)

    I had an wonderful and memorable time at this hostel. The hostel itself was very social and cosy, and the small number of people staying in the hostel meant you bond super easily with other travellers. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful and the location was super close to everything you needed. I would definitely love to come back!

    Hosts are so kind. They don’t speak much English and I don’t speak much french but we were still able to communicate well. Super cute, highly recommend. Cassis is beautiful and very safe for solo travelers. Decided to stay here instead of Marseille because of safety concerns as solo female and so glad I did- it was amazing!

    Rooms and lockers were small. The church bells are very loud next to the room every hour all through the night. Woke me up almost every hour.

    Absolutely loved my stay here a couple of months ago. Still travelling and this was by far my favourite place to stay, I think about it often and wish there were more hostels like this! So homely and small and got to know almost everyone staying. Great common courtyard for socialising. Great central location too.

    Everything was great! As a suggestion, within the price towels may be included as well as some milk or juice for breakfast. Bring your earplugs for outside morning noise.

    Little, lovely, family run hostel, in the hearth of Cassis. Rooms are clean and with everything you need to make your stay comfortable. As soon as you arrive, the owners explains you in details all the activities available in the area. They also allowed me to leave my luggage before the check in time. If you wish to work from Cassis the patio is very quiet and the wifi is strong and stable.

    Anne-Marie was a friendly, helpful, welcoming host with lots of information about Calanques National Park and all the beaches in the area. She is a native French speaker but can communicate in English. I couldn’t ask for more from a hostel! The outdoor area is absolutely beautiful and charming, with lots of plants, and places to hang wet clothes. The location is a five minute walk from the center, and the port, and there are restaurants even closer. There is a stove, microwave, fridge, freezer, two communal bathrooms and showers. The property is very quaint but there is lots of space, with only six people per room (there are two rooms total) However, other amenities aren’t plentiful. -no laundry machines, but there is a laundromat right down the street with washers and dryers for roughly €10 - very minimal free breakfast -like many hostels in Europe, you pay a few euros for city tax in cash at the end of your stay -not a party hostel at all but everyone was friendly and had great vibes (which I prefer)
