It was a bit difficult as i arrived after the reception closed. I received an email with instructions how to get in the accomodation, in good time and a curtesy call to confirm that i actualy received the email which was good. However, the email was in French only which made it difficult. Apart from that and the very-very soft mattress all was good. The appartment was very clean and i enjoyed the balcony. Good transport links. The lady at the reception was very kind and helpful. Ioverall i enjoyed the stay.

Great value for money but you need a car

If you're spending a few days in Cote d'Azur and are looking for an economic option then this property is good. The check-in process was a bit unclear but once that was resolved everything else was smooth. I think the property is mainly a dormitory for students of nearby schools but the family apartment is quite spacious and well-equipped to pass a few days (maybe gets a bit limited for >1 week). It could be a little cleaner but again at the price point we found our room to be great. However I would not recommend to anyone without a car (roughly 20-30 minutes to both Antibes and Nice).

Research week in Sophia-Antipolis

Pleasant and burden-free stay at City Sophia. The residence is quiet, clean and well-equipped. The staff is friendly and helpful, including before the arrival. No issues during the stay and quick departure process. A very good choice for students/researchers given the great rate offered at this time of the year and the numerous schools/labs nearby.

The apartments have seen better days. Ok for a couple of nights but that’s it. Pool area was shut while I was there and apart from the room there wasn’t anywhere else to relax. Hard beds but a quiet night which is needed. Away from anything else so recommend a vehicle if staying here.
