We checked into this apartment in Nice based on the reviews we had seen on this site. BEWARE. This apartment looks different in the online pictures than it does in real life. The pictures must have been taken years ago. The walls of the apartment were dirty. The floor was dirty. The elevator in the building did not work, nor did the A/C, nor did the stovetop. There were stray hairs on the supposedly clean beds and the entire apartment had an unclean, sticky, and unpleasant feel to it. The final straw for us was that the morning after we checked in, there was a strong smell of URINE emanating from the shower drain. The smell did not go away and spread throughout the entire apartment. After communicating this to Sunlight Properties, their explanation was that the buildings in Nice are old and that this smell was not out of the ordinary and not unexpected. They said they would pour some drain cleaner down the shower drain and that the smell should go away. We obviously were already extremely dissatisfied with the apartment and had decided to instead go to a hotel down the street. We asked for a refund for the 5 nights we would not be spending in the apartment-because, again, the apartment REEKED OF URINE-and we were told no refunds were to be given and that we would have to deal with the smell and stay there or lose our entire booking payment. I implore you-do not stay or book in this apartment or any apartment managed by Sunlight Properties. They are unprofessional, substandard, and not operating in good faith. Please spare yourself the headache and revolting, horrid experience and stay elsewhere in Nice. read more
