This beautifully furnished 3 bed air condioned apartment is fairly unique in Old Town Nice as most apartments are 1/2 bedrooms and about 70 sq metres. My place is over 100 sq metres and very spacious. It is situated in an ideal position, off the main drag, 5 mins from beach even if you are a slow walker, 2 mins from trams, 2 mins from buses where you can go to Monaco, Villefranche, Menton, Beaulieu, Cap Ferat, Grasse .
Its only 3 tram stops from the main railway station. It is surrounded by restaurants, shops, bars etc. Only 30 mins on the bus from the Nice Airport. I have a wonderful assistant who live 5 minutes away and has lived in Nice for 20 years and knows where to go and eat, she can arrange transportation, translation and any problems with the apartment will be sorted out immediately
NB
The Old Town is compact, vibrant, bustling and yet peaceful.
There are many bars and restaurants, but this is an attraction.
It is safe, convenient and full of colours and flavours.
Having said that it may not be the place to stay if you like peace and quiet. Part of the beauty is the fact it is one of the cleanest Cities in Europe; however first timers should be aware that they start cleaning all the streets, emptying the bins in the Old Town at 5.30-6.00 am. No matter where your apartment is the beeping Rubbish Lorry reversing up the old narrow streets will probably awake you. Anywhere is noisy at some time. Heck, it only takes a disruptive neighbour with heels, or domestic dispute, or dog barking to disrupt any lodgement. My apartment is quiet, aside from the random reveller at night, and the garbage bin truck in the mornings.
Personally I love the fact you have all these wonderful bars, , shops and restaurants on your doorstep and judging by my bookings and 5 star reviews so do most tourists. However if you want a quiet life I would suggest you stay out of town.
