We loved the town of Menton, the living room and bedroom of this historic apartment, it's location at the best beach of Menton and one of the Riviera's best, and the hosts are superb. Menton is charming, picturesque and prosperous with very friendly and welcoming people. There are wonderful foods, many excellent restaurants and cute shops. Just remember that almost everything closes in the afternoon, and that most of the good restaurants are closed from Sunday afternoon until lunchtime on Tuesday. We solved this problem by shopping for delicious terrines, pates, cheeses, breads, fruit, premade food at Menton's market on Sunday morning. The living room and bedroom of the apartment are beautiful and have comfortable furniture. There is a nice dining table, or you can dine on the terrace overlooking the sea. There is also a small balcony. The air conditioning works well. The best thing about the kitchen is the large quantity of plates and the dishwasher. It's extremely small and not functional to actually cook in unless you are very short and don't mind a tiny room with no daylight. Although I usually do some real cooking on trips, we didn't mind because the quality of the premade foods and the restaurants is superb.Ask Catherine and Phillippe recommendations to restaurants and bakeries - we loved all their picks, and they'll kindly make reservations for you. They were very helpful hosts when there was a train strike on the day we left for Italy and they arranged a taxi.
