Our family of four with two young adult children had an amazing stay in Genève at Philippe's apartment. We went at Christmas time and were within steps of the Jardin Anglais Christmas market where we enjoyed vin chaud and "fondue hotdogs" among other treats. We took the bus a few times during our stay but were able to (and did) walk most everywhere. If you will be in Genève for Christmas and/or L'Escalade this is a great place to call home! Last but not least we highly recommend taking a chocolate tour in Genève; you will not be disappointed!
