Spacious apartment in the centre of the old town near cafes, beach, and more

The location of this rental in Old Town Nice was everything! It was an easy walk to fantastic restaurants, the beach, and charming shops. Dermot was a fantastic host—very responsive via WhatsApp (though we had some trouble communicating through VRBO). He made check-in seamless, ensured we had all the necessary information, and answered all our questions.The only downside is the 75 stairs leading up to the apartment. If you're not in the best shape, it can be a challenge. But if you don’t mind the climb, this is a wonderful place to stay!

It’s a fine property - in our mind it gave you a feel for old town in Nice. Beach was a very easy walk, 3 easy to get too parking garages- even being a high walk up was part of the charm for us. Clawfoot tub was great- even took a couple cold plunges after a long day of walking. (Hot water works fine). Living room couches are fine and general AC works well (much needed in the August heat) Beds- for us- were a bit firm and we like firm. That’s not a judgement on the quality at all just an observation. Made side sleeping not possible. We like hotel firm but this was another level. It’s too bad they can’t have lock boxes out front for the keys and we needed to collect from the local bodega- meeting the owner didn’t work out. Not too much of a hassle nor the owners fault- just added another step while you’re navigating a new city. Frankly would be fine if we went back so perhaps a very minor critique. Some of the paint on the ceiling could use some attention- but that likely comes with the territory of an older building. The cracks and missing pieces have reached the point of needing to be addressed It isn’t very sound proof in the bedroom door department again that goes hand in hand with the age of the property and its charm. Final recommendation would be to install an emergency fire escape rope ladder that can be deployed - only one way in and out and it’s 4-5flights of stairs. Maybe little practical use but would be good piece of mind for a nominal investment.

This property was absolutely perfect for our short stay in Old Town Nice. Perfectly situated, within walking distance of everything we needed (6 mins from beach) we could not have asked for more. The apartment itself was spacious and very well appointed. We especially appreciated how effective the AC was during this time of year (July) as it was extremely hot outside. We would definitely consider staying here again, and would highly recommend.

Central location though up five flights of stairs so be prepared. Good air conditioning, needed in the height of summer. Plenty places to eat and drink within a few yards of the front door. Need to update the listing as Pool advertised yet there is no pool.
