We came to Aix with our niece who is considering a semester at the University there and FELL IN LOVE with the town and this little apartment. It is steps to Cours Mirabeau markets and all that the Old Town has to offer. We stayed for 5 days and I could have easily stayed longer! The kitchen was well appointed and the host had lots of amenities that minimized our need to provision which was nice. I can't wait to come back so I really hope my niece decides to study here! By far my favorite town in Provence that we visited.
Maria is a wonderful host. Excellent communication. The apartment is great. It's spacious and located in a quiet neighborhood. Everything was perfect. It only takes about 5 minutes to get to the center. Parking directly at the accommodation is problematic, as it's usually full. I recommend the Place du Souvenir Francais parking lot. It's only about 7-8 minutes away and free on weekends.
