Residhotel Villa Maupassant

I wasn’t expecting the front desk to be closed upon arrival, and it seemed neither were fellow travelers. I arrived at two and saw a sign saying they opened at 4. Was hoping I could at least leave my luggage, but no such luck. Once in the flat, the bathroom was old and not in great shape with stains, empty shower gel container and broken/missing decor on the wall. The person at the front desk was very friendly though, and access to cafes, the beach and bus stop were great.

It’s a great place if traveling with a lot of people, but way too big, and a little creepy traveling by myself. The staff was super friendly and helpful. Most of the room/apartment was clean, except the bathtub. There were also a lot of rules which didn’t make it seem like a real vacation and the WiFi kept cutting out.

Very basic. Reminded me of a student digs. Shower was a hand held shower head over a bath. But reasonably clean and actually quite spacious. Bed was comfortable, and having a balcony was a bonus. Reception closed for most of the day - which could be problematic for some.

Great location. Friendly staff. Across the road to the beach. Lovely pool and great local facilities not to mention a stones throw from downtown Cannes. Let down by the condition of the building, but this did not dampen the stay.

I really liked that the hotel is walkable to the beach. Lots of restaurants in the area as well. I liked the apartment style set up on the room as well.
