Three winter months in Cimiez above Nice
Summary: Very well appointed apartment, with pleasant southern sun exposure in the winter. Nice view of the city toward the sea, quiet neighborhood. Walking to the beach takes 40 minutes, but use of buses reduces the trip time to 30 minutes. Note that the garage parking spot is small.
Details:
Pros:
o Excellent communication with the host at all times
o Multiple sets of good-quality sheets, towels, blankets in the closets
o Nice clean building with marble in the hall, modern elevator
o Nice view of the city with a bit of blue mediterranean sea
o Quiet residential neighborhood with little traffic day and night
o Well appointed kitchen: dishwasher, American-size refrigerator, very complete set of utensils and dishes. Good washing machine in bathroom
o Excellent soaking bathtub that fills in 5 minutes
Cons:
o Some pictures of the sea on vrbo site are taken with strong telescoping lens. By bus it takes 30 minutes to reach the sea.
o Single beds are shorter than US beds. I am 5'8 and I wished they were longer. They might be uncomfortable for taller people.
o Garage can only accommodate the compact car of a non-claustrophobic driver with strong European parking skills.
Overall, 5 stars are well deserved.
