Location was the only good thing with this stay, but having been in Villefranche many times (this one the 3rd this year), I'd rather walk longer from the bus than stay here again - until this hotel is updated with regards to:
> beds (horrible standard)
> cleanliness (now mission impossible as very outdated and scruffy), ouf!!!
> missing hooks in the room, we had to hang jackets on door handle...
> bathroom, terribly cheap interior and even if recently (?) renovated it was already in a bad state, with broken shelves and shower constructed in a way that made you stand in high water as if it was a tub etc (+stupid small things like the soap container installed just above the toilet roll... no comments)
Not coming back until this hotel is updated with regards to:
> beds (horrible standard)!!!
> cleanliness, but not the fault of the cleaning lady as mission impossible atm (very outdated and scruffy interior, possibly cosmetic renovations made but without an eye for detail or any sense for practical daily use).
> missing hooks in the room, we had to use the door handle (wardrobe yes, but zero knobs or hooks anywhere).
> bathroom, terribly cheap interior and even if recently (?) renovated it was already in a bad state, with broken shelves + shower head holder, shower constructed in a way that made you stand in high water as if it's a tub (+stupid small things like a soap container installed just above the toilet roll... no comments)

Bon emplacement. Accès pratique à Nice et Monaco
Le lit était initialement cassé, j'ai donc dû faire quelques réparations mineures moi-même. Les chambres ont besoin d'un ravalement et d'un nettoyage plus approfondi.

The door alarm was very annoying.

- Nice staff that tried to accommodate our needs.
- Then lent us a parasol to use at the beach. We could also store a couple of our groceries in the common fridge.
- The bathroom was pretty good.
- The AC was noisy and also made a strange noise a couple of times a minute and it also leaked water on the floor so that the floor was damaged.
- Our room (number 4) was in need of a remodeling - it was out dated.
- There were no fridge or freezer in the room.
- The alarm to the door started to sound every time we opened the door. Where annoying to both us and the neighbors.
- Some of the power outlets where hanging loose from the wall.

Virginie is a very welcoming host who I felt went out of her way to look after me and make me feel at home. My room and bathroom were a generous size and I liked that it opened out onto the courtyard garden where I had a little to sit outside with a cup of tea. Had a kettle, too. Great location.
I’d have liked a little fridge for keeping water or milk in.

Clean Room, good bed, nice sea and city view. WC was a bit a surprise, room design 😉 small but clean and functional.
Breakfast was ok, but due to small hotel, limited. Due to small breakfast area, a bit limited. But the service makes the best. Vaccum cleaner should not be visible in breakfast area, but c'est la vie.

Host was nice
Location var good
Villefranchesurmer is so beautiful!
The garden was cute
Good to know:
- floors where not fresh, it felt like a sticky surface when walking. We switched from socks to shoes inside.
- difficult to get a balanced temperature in the shower, it went from cold to too hot. So it took time to get a hold of that.
- air quality/ventilation in the room could have been better. We opened the window and door before going to sleep to get fresh air, and 10 minutes after closing them the room felt airless and air trapped.

Covenient and undemanding. Bathroom modern, everything working. Blackout curtains. Air conditioning. Clean laundry.

Super friendly staff and check in. Cute grounds and room was bigger than I needed.
A bit musty it was difficult to relax and sleep without fresh air.
9.0
Clean (and this is the key thing my daughter is mind about), very close to bus station (15 and 607 which are the main buses to Nice center and Monaco) and to old town (stroll 5 min and you are at the harbor- where most eateries are located).
Water pressure and hot water at shower is good.
Staff is very friendly and the hotel has a Maine Coon.
There are 3 or 4 e-charging stations a stone throw away from the hotel. For those with e-car, this is a plus.
Not exactly something we didn't like, we slept with windows slightly open in the night and therefore subject to noises from the street which is ok I would say (as we were on vacation mode).

good location. room was renovated and a decent size for France. AC, updated bath etc. parking close by.
They had rooms with views but hadnt bothered to clean them. My room was fine, but no view. Was off of the small lobby. Still, it was a nice room.

room was clean, with comfortable bed, AC and good blinders. Location wise was perfect, in the heart of the cute village Villefranche sur Mer and close to the beach as well (about 10mns walk). Good restaurants nearby. We had the room on ground floor facing the street, it might be a bit noisy, depending on the traffic, but a good pair of earplugs will fix this. The receptionist was very friendly.

Location is great, easy to reach all restaurants nearby :)
Sofabed was comfortable
room was small, and we got charged for the 3 coffee nescafe sachets in the room for 2.50 Euro !! - I never ever experienced this anywhere in the world. And it was a effrontery - as it wasn't even announced that it is chargeable.

The location was superb, near the coast and also near the village of Villefranche. Ideal for getting the bus to visit Monto Carlo, Manson, Nice etc.
The garden is beautiful, with very comfy seating in the shade and the most adorable cat.
Could put a few shelves in the walk in wardrobe, but generally it was just lovely.
