“Cozy Apartment with Artistic and Historic Atmosphere” We were two retired couples spending three nights in Honfleur after our cruise ship landed us in Le Havre. We rented a car and drove here. Fair to say it was not straightforward to find this apartment when we were driving a car with somewhat inaccurate GPS. A more detailed and enlarged map would have helped. Parking was also hard the first time, because of concern for parking violation in the narrow streets. Subsequently, parking at the nearby Church's parking lot or parking at the public parking lot uphill behind the Carrefour market solved our problem. Most of the time around Honfleur, walking is preferred anyway. We did drive out to Trouville-sur-mer to visit the fish market and enjoyed oysters and shrimps in the food stands there. We also drove and visited the Normandy memorial places. The apartment is centrally located in Honfleur and there are many nice restaurants and boulangeries nearby. As we did not have a mobile phone, we could only set a definite time of 3pm to check into the apartment with Sophie, the apartment manager. Traffic and looking for the place delayed us till 3:30 pm but Sophie patiently waited for us in the apartment. She went through all the details about the apartment with us and recommended a favorite restaurant of hers. Sophie was extremely helpful. Her English is very good. We enjoyed staying in this lovely apartment and made it our home. The wifi worked well, as did the TV. We used the kitchen to boil water and some food. We enjoyed having salad and the bread and baguette available in the area. We brought back some shrimps, mussels and bulots from Trouville-sur-mer and had a wonderful feast one night. It is true that bringing up heavy luggages to the third floor level can be hard work. Doing it with two persons, one above and one below, made it easier. But, we needed to exercise anyway on vacation. Taking them downstairs was a lot easier, again with two persons. We appreciated the good taste of the owners in the decoration and the paintings hanging on the walls. The black, grey and white color scheme is also one that we personally prefer. This is why we felt right at home in this lovely and quaint apartment. The attic, where we slept, was also quite tastefully decorated. I did have to watch my head going into the bathroom there, else a light bump would wake me up in the morning. Overall, we enjoyed very much our stay here and would recommend it to our friends and others.
