Les Floralies Canebière

😊: Charming, spacious and clean apartment with great views from the long curved balcony. Walkable distance to Le Vieux Port, Le Panier district with so many cafes, shops and restaurants etc. Hosts were very helpful and responsive whenever we messaged them a query. Beds super comfy and long which was good for the taller traveller! Kitchen facilities were excellent including the filter coffee and Nespresso machines.. 😢: The apartment was listed as having two bathrooms but there was no WC in the ensuite, just a shower and sink. Instead there was a single shared WC..

😊: Comfortable, well prepared and a great apartment.. 😢: Nothing.

😊: The apartment was just as shown in pictures. Was a great place to spend 4 days; easy access to transport links and plenty of attractions. After a busy day exploring was a great apartment to relax. There was enough space to have room to relax separately and be together as a family. Very well equipped and enjoyed a few home cooked meals. Can’t say enough great things about the apartment, we really enjoyed our stay.. 😢: Cannot think of anything we didn’t like.

😊: I should say at the outset that we did not actually stay at the Canebiere apartment because of delayed building works. Our hosts were kind enough to arrange alternative accommodation for us close to the beautiful Reform Church for which we were very grateful. It was a lovely apartment in a very old building in a great location with bars, cafes and restaurants just outside. The main bedroom was very spacious and comfortable.. 😢: I don't know if the property we stayed in is regularly rented out. Without wishing to be too harsh we did not find it the most comfortable accommodation and in truth I don't believe we would rented it based on having had to stay there (because of the building work at the place we were supposed to be at). The main bedroom was lovely but we found the rest of the apartment a little too formal and austere which might be keeping with the apartment's antiquity but doesn't make for the most comfortable holiday experience. For example there is just a rather uncomfortable sofa in the living room accompanied by about 8 antique chairs set up around it as if for a meeting. The kitchen is a bit functional with a small table and chairs which feel more suited to outside. But as I said earlier given the circumstances and the fact that we had to be found alternative accommodation at very short notice we recognise that things may have been affected by that. But I would close by saying that if this is to be rented out regularly there needs to be a bit of change made to give it a more homely feel..

😊: location was great. 😢: nothing.
