Great location, can walk to everywhere; for further afield use the buses; one euro each way, we went to Monaco for the day, takes about 30 mins on bus. Lots of pavement cafes/restaurants, esp in Old Nice. Apartment was lovely, main bed up on a mezzanine floor, but it was very bright and airy. My son had the sofa bed, which was huge when pulled out [kingsize] and very comfortable. Washing machine was a bonus, wet towels dry overnight on airer, if you leave the window open and turn off air con. Big window, so good breeze if you dont like air con. Kitchen well equipped; towels and sheets good quality; Very quiet in apt block when we were there in July.
Lots of great patisseries, try the fig tart, yummy. Good supermarket on Rue Gambetta, good for drinks, bread, fruit and veg etc.[ 10 min walk from apt]. Nice is lovely, no trouble at night, no unruly behaviour, felt very safe at night walking around, my 15 yr old son loved Place Massena, lots of foreign teenagers congregate here to chat, and watch street performers. TIPS, you can drink the tap water; bring some CDs and DVDs; and beach towels; make use of the washing machine, and travel light. Nice is expensive , but there are cheaper options, if you stay out of the really touristy places, but it is WORTH IT! We had a great holiday and will be back.
