We loved our stay. The location was perfect. It is like an up-and-coming Williamsburg type area - not there yet but give it time - lots of restaurants, brasseries and bars. Simon gave us great recommendations! We could still walk into the old city easily! Once we parked (which itself is a blessing, a nice underground parking lot, the attendant on the help button does speak English if you are silly like us and can’t figure out how to get in) we didn’t use it again the 3 days. The old city is up a BIG hill, but once tackled, you are golden and an easy walk home. We can’t wait to come back to this charming city!
