Great weekend in a wonderful location - friendly host
I spent 3 nights with my parents in this great property. The location is ideal with a spectacular beach view and is centrally located in Menton, with many restaurants within walking distance. The apartment is well furnished, with 2 bedrooms, comfortably sleeping 3 (4 with a pull-out bed in the smaller bedroom). The parking was super convenient. France and her son Eric were awesome hosts, flexible to our schedule changes, and quick at answering questions. I would pick this property again for my next trip to the French Riviera.
The property features a nice terrace overlooking the promenade and the sea. The morning light and the sea view you get in the morning is amazing. The apartment is well equipped and soundproofed so you just get a very light traffic noise. There are a few restaurants, bakeries and a mini-market a few minutes walk, so you do not need the car for dining and groceries. Internet connection stable if only 1 device was connected to wifi. Great news for families with small children: Koaland fun park just across the street, a must go. The owners are very kind and waited for us despite we were blocked by a major traffic jam.
Die Lage der Wohnung zwischen 2 sehr stark befahrenen Strassen war sehr nervig weil extrem laut. Die Sauberkeit lĂ€sst sich sehr leicht stark verbessern. Der gröĂte Minuspunkt ist allerdings, dass der Garagenparkplatz keine Lademöglichkeit fĂŒr E-Fahrzeuge hat und ohne Rechnung gebucht werden muss
Ottimo appartamento e posizione . Rumoroso si ma vista mare impagabile
Circondato L arrivo . PossibilitĂ di parcheggio box pagando un supplemento . Appartamento ben suddiviso e completo di accessori . Per chi non Ăš abituato e un poâ rumoroso soprattutto di notte ma la vista sul mare e impagabile . Vicino a tutti i servizi . Spiagge ? C e solo da scegliere !!!! Mare mare mare

Absolut nicht zu empfehlen/Absolutely not recommended
Bei der Buchung dieser Unterkunft haben wir uns auf die zumeist guten Bewertungen verlassen sowie auf den Hinweis, dass die Wohnung modern und schallisoliert ist. Nichts davon trifft zu. Das Apartment ist alt, muffig und sehr karg eingerichtet. Bei unserer Ankunft war alles sehr schmutzig. Das Bad war nicht geputzt, ganze HaarbĂŒschel fanden sich im Abfluss. Unsere Fusssohlen waren schwarz vor Dreck. Die Besitzer haben uns Putzmittel ĂŒbergeben, damit wir selber reinigen können (!). Zudem liegt die Wohnung direkt an einer viel befahrenen Strasse und gleich bei einer Ampel, an der sĂ€mtliche Fahrzeuge und MotorrĂ€der mit Vollgas starten. An Schlaf und einem gemĂŒtlichen Aufenthalt auf dem Balkon ist nicht zu denken. Wir waren mit zwei kleinen Kindern dort, sie haben sich sogar bei geschlossenen Fenstern ab dem LĂ€rm erschrocken. Mit den Besitzern liess sich nicht reden. Nach zwei Tagen sind wir erleichtert ausgezogen. Wir wĂŒrden diese Wohnung absolut nicht empfehlen.
Absolutely not recommended
When booking this accommodation, we relied on the mostly good ratings and on the fact that the apartment is modern and soundproofed. None of this is true. The apartment is old, musty and very poorly furnished. On our arrival everything was very dirty. The bathroom was not cleaned, whole tufts of hair were found in the drain. Our soles were black with dirt. The owners gave us cleaning supplies so that we could clean ourselves (!). In addition, the apartment is directly on a busy road and right at a traffic light where all vehicles and motorcycles start at full throttle. Sleep and a comfortable stay on the balcony is not to be thought of. We were there with two small children, they were frightened even with closed windows from the noise. We couldn't talk to the owners, they had no understanding. After two days we moved out relieved. We would absolutely not recommend this apartment.

ottima accoglienza gentilezza e disponibilitĂ ottima
The apartment was comfortable for an eight day stay. There is ample space, the bed is comfortable, the room can be darkened for sleep. There is a second bedroom with a single bed. As we were only two people, we used that room to keep our suitcases and clothes out of the way.There are lots of dishes in the kitchen so that you can have a few meals before you need to use the dishwasher. The bathroom is modern with a good supply of towels. We did not have a car, but there is parking available in the underground garage. Ms Bergel kindly picked us up at the train station (which is about a 15 minute walk away) upon our arrival. She was quick to respond to our requests for little items that were lacking in the flat. The only thing that couldn't be worked out was a problematic wi-fi signal which worked for only the first couple of days. We did not press the issue, and found wi-fi signals at the Tourist Office. We did wear earplugs at night because the apartment is located between two major roads, at an intersection. Thus, there is the traffic sound, especially of the many noisy motorbikes that stop and start at the intersection. For us, the positive of being right beside the ocean with a view from the living room was greater than the negative of the road noise. We would stay there again. There is a concierge in the apartment block who has regular hours and who is willing to help one out. The building has easy access and it feels totally safe and secure. There are little grocery stores and restaurants nearby. Across the street, in the direction away from the ocean, is a beautiful, peaceful garden with paths to wander, many benches, beautiful plantings. Also, kiddy corner from the apartment building is a children's amusement park. We had a good time using the apartment as our base to explore the area using the very affordable buses and the convenient trains. Thank you, France, for your welcome and your help.
