My teen daughter and I stayed here for a week at the end of May and it was the perfect homebase for us to explore the region by train. The apartment had everything we needed. The beds were comfortable and we loved the bedding! My daughter had a nap in the hammock every day when we got in from our adventures! I enjoyed the well appointed kitchen and the comfy couch with a view and ocean breeze. Watching the beach from the living room windows and listening to the chatter of people going up and down the stairs from the bedroom was very entertaining. The old town of Menton was beautiful and ease of finding groceries, snacks and places to shop and eat was fantastic! It was also convenient to be a mere 15 minute walk from either train station! The owners did a great job of describing the apartment in their posting.

If you want to live as a tourist in a standardised environment, find yourself a big international hotel. If you want to spend a couple of weeks living a la Mentonaise in an ancient, quirky, seafront apartment a short walk from the beach and everything Menton has to offer, book this apartment. Steep steps and some low ceilings means that this apartment won't necessarily suit everyone, but if you're after character and authenticity you'll love it. The sea view from the large, stone-floored lounge is amazing and it's only a five minute walk to the town's many cafes, restaurants, bars and shops or down to the beach. The owners are helpful and easy to communicate with. We flew to Nice and caught the train to Menton; a really lovely way to arrive.

Die Wohnung war gut vorbereitet für uns und sehr sauber. Die Lage ist absolut empfehlenswert , zum Strand so wie in die Altstadt zu Fuss in 2 Minuten Leider gibt es Probleme mit dem Abwasser und der Eigentümer sollte sich um die Sache kümmert. ein Raumentfeuchter ist nicht ausreichen. Ansonsten top Adresse.

We had a lovely time in this fascinating and ancient apartment, whose picturesque position could not be improved. Andrea and Giulia were extremely helpful in their communication before the stay, and Zohra, her husband, and her daughter were on hand throughout the time that we were there. It is quite noisy, as some of the reviews mention, but this is to be expected and is a small sacrifice for an otherwise wonderful apartment in a perfect location. Certainly somewhere we would love to visit again!

Vue imprenable sur la Méditerranée et les cotes italiennes. Grand appartement, tout confort, sur 2 étages (les plafonds du 2e ou se trouve la chambre sont assez bas et nécessitent de baisser la tête pour atteindre la salle de bains). Il y a aussi la possibilité de coucher dans le salon au premier (avec une autre salle de bains). Situé dans la vieille ville historique, tout prêt d'un marché fantastique et de tous les commerces. Les propriétaires sont extrêmement chaleureux et accommodants. Nous reviendrons avec grand plaisir!

We stayed at this apartment for 12 nights in late October 2019. The flat is extremely well located, with exceptional views of the gravelly / sandy plage des Sablettes and the Mediterranean beyond. The most important point is that the description of the apartment by the owner is entirely honest and accurate. The building is old (perhaps not quite ancient) but the accommodation is warm, comfortable, clean, basically / tastefully furnished and decorated, and clearly cared for. Without exception the kitchen equipment, and other electrical equipment, worked well. The wi-fi was reliable, and adequate for our purposes. There was plentiful hot water and, because of the building’s thick walls, little if any noise from other apartments. With some adjustments, we slept well, even though some nights were very humid. Communication with the owner during the booking process and throughout our stay was satisfactory, and Jane helped us settle in and pointed out the locality’s amenities. Issues that prospective renters should be aware of are (1) the living / kitchen area and the bedroom are two floors apart, separated by the entrance hall (2) the bedroom and ensuite ceilings are very low, and will be awkward for tall people (3) it is difficult to understand why the mattress on the main double-bed is of a thin futon-type, which I suggest makes it unsuitable for long stayers (4) the spiral staircase connecting the floors is narrow, in parts poorly lit, and may be difficult to manage for the elderly and infirm (5) there is a road between the building and the beach which is busy and noisy throughout the day - despite the local administration’s best efforts - in common with most towns on this coast.

Eine wunderbare kleine Oase direkt gegenüber der Plage Sablettes, die bereits morgens früh zum Schwimmen einlädt. Nur ein paar Schritte von der schönen Fussgängerzone der Altstadt entfernt. Check in perfekt von der Nachbarin Jane organisiert. Sie ist sehr liebenswürdig und immer ansprechbar bei Fragen aller Art. Thanks a lot for a wonderful time in Menton !!!

The apartment was perfect for our short break to Menton - it's got a great old-fashion charm (although this does mean narrow staircases and low ceilings in the bedroom - wasn't a problem for us, but could be for those less mobile). The location was perfect in the old town, overlooking the beach and coast towards Ventimiglia, and near some nice restaurants and bars. Some local bus routes ran nearby, but the longer distance buses and the train station are 15mins walk away. We didn't meet Andrea, but Jane welcomed us and checked us out. She was friendly and helpful, and happily accommodated our arrival/departure times. Overall, a great stay and would thoroughly recommend.
