When accommodation is a complete hit

My rent in Nice, Cote d'Azur

I recently combined work and pleasure and traveled to beautiful Nice on the Mediterranean coast. This coast is known as the Cote d'Azur because of the beautiful turquoise sea. But I will write about that another time. I want to start from the beginning and somehow participate in the @FriendlyMoose photo contest with the subject WOOD.

I booked the accommodation through one of the usual sites for these needs - booking.com. Since I have been using their services for years, I have gained the highest rank over time, which allows me some very nice discounts and other benefits. During this trip to France, I used the benefits to the limit :)

For the first booked accommodation, due to my mistake, I did not notice that he asked for a very significant deposit. Since I wasn't interested in tying up so many credit card funds, I took advantage of the free cancellation option, cancelled and booked accommodation number two.

For this accommodation, after a few days it turned out that it does not have a good connection with the city center and that it is recommended for those who have a car. Since I didn't intend to rent a car, I used the benefits again and canceled that accommodation for free.

The third failure was due to insufficiently described internet infrastructure by the landlord. When I contacted him after booking with questions about the bandwidth, it turned out that the internet in the apartment is provided by a public access point of the city that does not have a large range. We quickly agreed to cancel accommodation for free.

This kind of thing is not characteristic for me. So far, I have only canceled accommodation a few times: twice due to Covid19 and once due to the cancellation of the entire trip. This time I became very worried whether I would even find accommodation to my liking. After a couple of days I booked an accommodation in an excellent location that met all my criteria.

I didn't even pay attention to the fact that landlord mentioned that my accommodation had a garden. I didn't even look at the photos that showed it. So you can only imagine how pleasantly surprised I was when I arrived to find this beautiful garden.

I worked from it for many days. In the evening I spent time in it reading books. I drank coffee in the morning planning the day. When I took a break for a meal, I consumed my meals in the shade of the beautiful garden. I even met with business partners one day in this beautiful environment.

I am sure that this beautiful environment has influenced my productivity, the success of negotiations and the immense satisfaction that I ultimately bring from the beautiful Nice on the Cote d'Azur.
Sometimes fate just knows how to make us happy.
