The apt is set in a really old traditional block with a secure compound and a secure external door. There are 4 flights of stairs with no lifts , but not really a problem for us. We couldnt see the light switch on the first night so used our phones for light , until we realised what we thought was the doorbell was the light switch!When the door was opened the smell of clean washing came wafting out, the apt was immaculately clean. The bed was very comfortable. Although the apt was small the balcony was a godsend. It was fantastic drinking wine watching the sun go down over neighbouring blocks. The kitchen was well equipped , no kettle you just use a pan. There is a long pedestrianised street nearby full of restaurants, shops and bars. The flower market is worth going to but that is a little longer on foot. There is a good cuban bar nearby for mojitos! Drinks in general are expensive,but the buses are really cheap. One euro anywhere. Cannes, Monte Carlo, and Ventimille are worth visiting, the first two just to look at the rich people and their fabulous cars and boats. Clare who met us was very friendly. We paid her our deposit and she returned it when we gave her the keys. A word of warning though, we left the window open the first night and got bitten. We picked up a number of mosquito bites over the 4 days which we didnt expect. There is a fan in the bedroom , worth using that. The size was ideal for 2 of us , but I would have felt a bit cramped if there were 4.All in all I would definitely recommend the apt and Nice
