The location of this apartment is exceptional. You are steps from the ocean, as well as from the flower market and Vieux Nice. There is also a tram stop nearby with access to Place Massena. Yes, you do have to climb stairs to access the apartment, but this is well explained in the listing and was not an issue for us. The apartment is extremely clean, spacious, comfortable, and well appointed.We had a few issues with communication (host did not respond to a couple of my questions) and the check-in with the desk clerk at the Hotel below the apartment was a bit unpleasant, but other than that it was an excellent stay. Highly recommend.
Best location to all things in Nice. Tram stop nearby and if you are a walker then this is heaven. Just moments from the beach, shops, food, and historic sights. You do have to climb a few flights of stairs to the apartment but it worked for us. Not to mention the view from the apartment is amazing.
I loved the apartment, clean, cozy, nice decoration, the BEST location, AWESOME view, well maintained, walking distance to the old town, markets, beach close to everything while staying in Nice. Also reasonable price. Iâll stay again at this place.
The apartment was beautiful, exactly as pictured and with all of the listed amenities. The location was superb, a three minute walk from the beach, the tram and right at the edge of Vieux Nice. The bed was very comfortable, the washing machine and air conditioning were huge bonuses but the weather ended up being so perfect that the AC wasnât needed. The windows and close proximity to the ocean give the apartment great ventilation with fresh air. The view from the windows is also great, it was nice eating breakfast and people watching. Overall my stay was everything I hoped it would be!
The location was perfect, very close to the center of the old town and to the beach. There are everything one may need, including a washing machine. There was a small issue with the vine glasses - only one was available. The apartments are on the roof area so you have to climb to the 5th floor, which is a good exercise. It was quite quiet before the jazz festival, just next to the building, started. The loud music continued till 1 am for a few days.
We really enjoyed staying here with a great view of Massena Square. The location was close to the beach, the tram, and bus routes. We were able to see everything we had planned and more. It was a large space that had a modern kitchen. Just be sure to watch your head in some places (exposed beams and sloped ceiling). With four flights of stairs, it may not be for everyone, but we are young and didn't mind the exercise. It fit our needs perfectly on our European trip.
The property location is phenomenal and 5 min walk from the main beaches and does have the view of town square, communication could be slightly better with PM but overall good. The view is accurate of the Apollo Fountain and you can hear people playing the piano in the main area. It is walking from many beaches, bars, and many restaurants (including some Michelin). There's two rooms both with its on HVAC unit, so spacious, but be cautious if you're tall as I was ducking a lot to navigate the place. There's not elevator / lift so be prepared to carry your luggage up 4-5 flights of stairs.
The toilet unfortunately clogged during my stay, but the host was very amenable about it, refunded the nights not stayed. Hope the problem is resolved now and people have a good stay here!
Other than having to ask for toilet paper (none in room luckily front desk gave us some) this was an excellent experience. Clean, excellent location, comfortable- do need to watch your head as ceiling sloped (great character though). No elevator so a bit of a walk up stairs so just be aware. Would stay here again! Used washer and had several drying racks which was great. No issues at all. Big fridge and freezer was nice.
Great location but poor communication from owner and terrible shower
This apartment is in a great location, but thatâs kind of where the good ends. I received no communication from the owner on how to check-in despite sending him messages asking for them. I ended up having to call on our way there and even then the instructions were not clear. The listing was also misleading as it said parking was available - turns out, only paid public parking was available, and the closest parking lot is about a 5min walk. It wouldnât be too bad if you have little to no luggage, but horrendous if you have more because you cannot even stop in front of the building to unload the luggage due to it being a single lane road with a lot of traffic. We had to park in the lot a few blocks away, then make 3 separate trips to bring in luggage - up 5 flights of stairs!
I believe the apartment owner has an agreement with âhotel de la merâ (which btw, is NOT a hotel, more like a b&b) in the same building to handle the key exchange and housekeeping duties, but the guy at the check-in reception didnât understand that we were there for the apartment, which meant that the owner did not communicate to him that we were going to be checking in that day. After we finally got into the apartment, no one could tell us how to connect to the WiFi, including the owner. The ridiculously long WiFi password (some 8-9 words long with dashes and all) was posted on ge cable box, but no one could tell us what WiFi network to connect to. The owner literally said âjust try the strongest signalâ. Well, there were like 10-12 different networks available and half of them had strong signals!
The apartment was cute, but the layout wasnât. The bed is angled in a way where one person would have to bend over to get out of the corner. Half of the space was like that due to it basically being a finished attic. There was a lot of floor space though, and cute nooks by the windows where you have a great view of place Massena. It is, however, TERRIBLY NOISY. Not just from all the traffic and people on the streets, but also the neighbors who liked to stay up late.
Worst part of the place was the shower. Itâs a shift-make shower with no door, just 2 pieces of glass and a super shallow base right next to the bed. Water overflowed onto the bedroom floors every time we took a shower, and only 2 medium sized, thin bath towels and 1 hand towel were provided.
We would definitely not stay here again and we would not recommend it to anyone.
Loved the location, loved the decor/set up of the room. Beds were comfy, washing machine was great, view was great. Lots of room. Really cute and great overall, would come back! Shower drain very slow.
