Lovely Location and View
Positives: Location, location, location- Beautiful view of the harbor and Mediterranean. Tram to town and multiple bus stops right outside of the door. However, this means it is a bit noisy outside. Hundreds of very good, and several great restaurants within easy walking distance.
The others: The bed is a bit small. Not a queen or king, but rather a full or double size in American terminology.
The apartment is on the top floor. However, there is an attic apartment above. Typical of old French buildings, their footsteps are quite loud below.
There were a few maintenance and wear issues. The rug in the living room has several stains. Some areas of grout in the shower need deep cleaning. The bathroom light often stays on despite pushing either control switch.
Previous comments about internet are correct. OK at the kitchen table. Weak sitting on the couch and often not usable in the bedroom.
The control for the HVAC was not working properly. The controller had to be kept in the kitchen cabinet rather than on the spots where it had previously been mounted on the wall. This is likely because it is a WIFI system and could not operate from the other end of the apartment.
Many partially used toiletries and condiments left by previous guests remain. In some cases, this was good (shampoo, liquid soap, olive oil, pepper) in others a bit off (deodorant, tampons, baby wipes, mayonnaise, jam)
