This is a beautifully renovated apartment in a perfectly located area of historic Aix Center Ville. Lovely, very clean and surprisingly chic!
The living room is very comfortably appointed with leather chairs and couch over classic aged tiles, providing a wonderful contrast of old Provence and modern decor. We prepared many meals in Muriel’s gorgeous kitchen, since it was so spacious and easy to work in. The bathroom was lovely as well. Both bedrooms were very large, with comfortable beds. One bedroom has an additional loft with two twin mattresses that would work well for kids or an agile couple who can manage a narrow staircase. Very nice optional space!
The high ceilings provide a spacious feel, making it easy to spend many relaxing hours in the apartment. For the stair-challenged, there are over 40 steps to the unit, but the stairway is wide with a good railing (but no elevator).
There are many cafès, restaurants, stores and food markets within a block or two, and even a gluten-free place right outside the front door, for you gluten-challenged folks.
We spent a wonderful week at Muriel’s. She was a great hostess, as was Christina, her Charming Assistant, who greeted us and gave us excellent suggestions for shopping, parking, and walking Aix.
We loved the entire experience and will make every effort to stay at Muriel’s place when we return to Aix. We consider it “our home in Aix”. Merci à vous deux, Muriel and Christina, for a wonderful stay in Aix.
