Great location, walking distance to the beach, restaurants and stations. Nice and clean facilities. Comfortable room, loved the fact the wardrobe had lots of hanging space and shelves so I could just unpack all my clothes. Staff were friendly and accommodating. I was asked to pay a deposit of 150 Euros upfront which I was not expecting but I did get a full refund a few days after I checked out. Otherwise no other issues.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
We walked here from the train station with our luggage in under 20 minutes. I think we got upgraded to a top floor, lovely corner room with a nice view to the south. Location is great to walk to the Promenade or anywhere else you want to go. The street itself is tree-lined and away from the bulk of the tourists. I recommend the nearby La Niçoise bakery if you’re there Monday to Friday. They know some English, but always ask before you assume because place caters to locals and the lucky tourists who find it.
