Excellent value apartment
Review Submitted: September 5, 2009

This is a modern, comfortable and spacious apartment located in a preserved building in a safe and exclusive area adjacent to Nice city centre yet within five minutes walking distance from the beach. It is also within short walking distance from the old town and flower market which contains a plethora of sumptuous open air restaurants and cosy old-French style bars and cafes which seem to remain open deep into the early hours. I was constantly amazed by the fact that the Nicoise inhabitants never appear to sleep with the streets remaining thronged with its fashionable denizens until well after midnight. The owner of this apartment has provided stylish and modern furnishings which tastefully complement the period mood of the building while the marbled floors and traditional French shuttered windows of the apartment add a cooling respite from the heat of Nices' afternoons and evenings. I was particularly impressed by the spaciousness of the rooms and high ceilings and upon our arrival noted that the apartment had been well maintained with an emphasis on cleanliness. The amenities provided were more than adequate for our needs, with plenty of fresh towels, bed linen, together with satellite tv, washing machine, and dishwasher. The apartment also contains two bathrooms which is particularly useful in busy family environments! Similarly it is located on the first floor of the building which obviates the necessity of waiting for the lift, hiking up long stairways with heavy luggage, reluctant children etc. In all I would consider this apartment to be of excellent quality in terms of location and physical amenities, of far superior value in price terms compared to hotel lodgings, and, the service provided by the agent upon arrival, stay, and, departure is efficient and responsive. I have, therefore, no hesitation in placing this apartment within the five star category of this review.
