Perfect location in the Old Town. Very helpful owner and staff who let us check in early and gave good local directions for bus and onwards travel. Plus beach mats to use and a vending machine offering beer:-) No luxuries but kitchen and clean and quiet. We'll be back. x

very well situed place, cool staff, they are really friendly and welcoming, they will give you all necessary advice for a good trip in Nice! The place is cleaned everyday, I stayed 1 month and it was more than fine!

Owner is very helpful in giving directions, advise... More

I have traveled... More
