We loved our stay here and would definitely stay here again when in Nice. Location was great within a 5 minute walk to the centre of town. The staff were super friendly and on hand if needed (A big thank you to Alex and Moreen). The room was great (we booked the delixe with balcony overlooking the pool and courtyard area). The rooms were clean and very comfortable and adequate for a city break stay.
