Perfect base for Normandy visit

The apartment was clean and very homey. A perfect balance of simplicity and charm. Michel met us at the property and showed us around. It had everything we needed for our 5 night stay. The location is an easy walk to train station, but in a nice neighborhood. Several good restaurants, grocery stores, and a boulangerie close by. You can take the bus to the Caen WWII Memorial museum from the stop in front of the apartment. The city also has a nice trolley system from the train station. We had a car for 3 days to explore DDay sites and Mont Saint Michel. We were able to park in the lot near the building. Michel leaves has an excellent manual with pictures to show you how to access the lot. My only concern is that the apartment was a bit cold in 50F weather. We tried turning on the heaters, but they didn’t do much. I think this was more a French aesthetic than anything particular to the apartment. We were glad we had cozy loungewear and the apartment had several extra blankets. We wish we’d had more time and hope to come back someday.

It was a very nice and clean property, and we had everything we needed for our 4 day stay. There was a bakery and grocery store just across the street. However, this apartment is in Caen, and it gets VERY cold, but the heating systems inside the house were not adequate.

This was the ideal place for our one-week stay. Perfect location just across the river from central Caen and it’s delights. Very central location for day-trips, touring in Normandy. The host was very helpful and easy to reach before and during our stay. Local bakery, grocery and many restaurants gave our trip the wonderful, neighborhood feel we longed for. Clean, comfortable, stylish…perfect for a “couples” getaway week. Thank you.

Very cozy apartment

We stayed for 4 nights in September. We found the apartment to be very modern while maintaining a lovely ambience. It makes very good use of the space available. We used it as a base for travelling to Bayeux and the normandy beaches. The city itself has a lovely old centre with nice independent shops and historical sites.

Incredible stay

This apartment’s location is fantastic, just a 10-min walk from the train/bus station. Inside, we were so impressed with the design, cleanliness and comfort. The owner has been generous with equipping the place, and his instruction manual makes it easy. We were delighted to find a corner market across thestreet

Wonderful stay- City Break in Caen

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at City Break in Caen. The apartment was tastefully decorated and very comfortable. The kitchen was well supplied with cooking utensils, cookware and dinner ware. The neighborhood is very quiet, which was important for us after a long day of exploring Normandy sites. There is a small market across the street. Several very good restaurants within a short walking distance. We found proprietors at restaurants and shops very pleasant. Michel was wonderful to work with before our stay, during our stay, and departure. Instructions were very clear. We would love to stay again when we visit the area in the future. Thank you so much!

Tolle Wohnung-citynah

Die Wohnung von Michel kann ich nur empfehlen! Netter und problemloser Kontakt, einfaches Check-in. Wir wurden mit einem leckeren Geschenk begrüßt- vielen Dank dafür. Die Wohnung hat alles was man braucht, sogar einen Parkplatz sowie Bettwäsche und Handtücher! Die Fotos entsprechen genau der Realität. Die Dusche ist sehr groß. Zu Fuß benötigt man ca. 15-20 Minuten bis ins Zentrum. Aber auch Öffis sind ganz in der Nähe. Um Caen und Umgebung anzuschauen ist die Wohnung super gut geeignet!!

Excellent apartment,where everything is as described.

This apartment was everything we could hope for, which made our stay in Caen and visit to Normandy a joy. It's location enabled us to explore and enjoy Caen on foot and for trips around the area it was such a relief to know that there was private designated parking to return to. A 5 star bonus. Overall, we would not hessitate in reccommending this great little apartment to others

Truly excellent

This is a well-furnished and modern apartment in Caen and we loved staying there. Michel was wonderful and easy to deal with both before and during our trip. The apartment was very clean and had all the amenities we wanted. It is very cozy. We ate out all the time but the kitchen seemed well appointed if you wanted to eat in. The shower was excellent with great water pressure and a good amount of hot water. The washing machine takes a bit of a while because it is small so plan ahead for that; it works well it just takes a while. The location is lovely with a wonderful bakery across the street and it is near the river. It was only a 10-20 minute walk to most places in Caen. The city itself is absolutely lovely. Our favorite was the Rue St. Pierre. We came for a trip to the Normandy beaches and I highly recommend staying in Caen (and at this apartment). Bonne journey!

We had a wonderful stay in this location. The owner was kind and left treats as a welcome. It is modern, clean, safe and has an elevator!

Great Location

Enjoyed the in-town location and the convince to the train, Hertz and many restaurants. Car parking was a bit scarry since it was a rental car and not knowing the safety of the community. All worked out well though. Did not use the apartment for more than sleeping but was well suited for many activities such as meals and hosting guests.

Perfect stay in Caen

Michel's apartment has set a new standard for rentals. It is beautifully decorated, very modern throughout. We cooked quite a few meals and the kitchen is fully equiped. The living room is very comfortable and having a washing machine to do a little laundry was a bonus. We would gladly stay there again if we are back in the area.

Schönes Apartment in junger Studentenstadt mit viel Geschichte

Wir haben uns für dieses Apartment entschieden, weil wir mit Caen eine Stadt besuchen wollten, die eine interessante Historie besitzt und dennoch jung, modern und lebendig ist. Des Weiteren war es uns wichtig, deutsch-französische Geschichte in der Normandie zu entdecken und zu erleben. Wichtig war es ebenso, schnell am Meer zu sein. Unseren Erwartungen wurde der Aufenthalt vollständig gerecht und Michel hat mit seinem Apartment sehr viel dazu beigetragen. Schon vor der Anreise hat er dafür gesorgt, das es uns an nichts fehlt. Die Kommunikation war super und einwandfrei. Er hat es uns so leicht wie möglich gemacht und war auch bei Rückfragen während des Aufenthalts sofort hilfsbereit. Das Einchecken lief nach vorherigem Briefing reibungslos ab. Ein Parkplatz mit gesicherter Schranke, ungefähr eine Minute vom Apartment weg, sichert das Fahrzeug ab. Bei der Besichtigung des Apartments war alles sauber und ordentlich. Informationen und ein kleines Willkommensgeschenk lagen auf dem Tisch, was uns sehr gefreut hat. Caen ist auf jeden Fall einen Besuch wert. Junge Menschen, viel Geschichte und schönen Bauten. Empfehlenswert mit Fahrten von ca. 1 Stunde Entfernung sind die Strände am Meer mit Geschichte zum zweiten Weltkrieg, aber auch die Nachbarstädte wie beispielsweise Rouen, welche unglaublich schön sind. Insgesamt waren wir sehr zufrieden und danken Gastgeber Michel für seine freundliche Begleitung durch unseren Kurzurlaub.
