Promenade des Anglais. Super Wohnung mit Blick auf das Meer !!!!!

This apartment has great views, but it sit on the front with six lanes of constant traffic although the double patio doors blocked out all sound when closed. The tram runs along the street at the back from the airport right into the town which is brilliant, there is also a great supermarket and patisserie on the same street. There was a couple of apartments being renovated this began early morning, so much for a restful break. The bed was really uncomfortable propped up with a pile of magazines and it definitely hasn't been cleaned under the bed for a long time, the pillows also need replacing. The cupboards are full of random stuff, this would be better if it were put in one cupboard and locked away if the owner wants to keep it. The apartments well equipped but we cleaned everything we were using first as there was lipstick marks on a couple of glasses. The Wi-Fi didn't always work and the tv was limited with channels. It is a beautiful walk along the promenade and there are seats to stop and take in the view. There's a bus stop at next block which goes to Cannes and other resorts, the train was also easy to do visits to Villefranche and Monaco. We really enjoyed Nice but would find a quieter area to stay.

The big pluses are the location, the views and the fact that the apartment was as described, no nasty surprises. The apartment was reasonably well equipped and generally in good decorative order. Yes,the road is noisy but close the double glazed windows and the noise stops. A couple of niggles. Firstly the television kept losing the signal (after working OK for about a day) and required the concierge to reset it. We did this several times but gave up in the end. Secondly, the bath and hand towels were well past their use by dates, looking a little sad. That was a shame as other items such as bath robes looked brand new. Finally, there was a large amount of someone's personal stuff in several cupboards and drawers. We have rented a number of properties in the last few years and have not come across this before. It made us feel as if we were intruding in someone's home. Our experience is that the owners usually pack these items up and put them in a locked cupboard. And finally, finally a word of thanks to Susana, the concierge. She was very helpful and gave us good advice about buses and trains and a number of other things.

The apartment was well-located, clean and very secure. I would rent it again.
