  • Parking de la place Morgan, a bit further (around 7 minutes of walking) but a bit less expensive, and which has interesting rates for multi-day tickets or week tickets (see the attendants on arrival or book here).
  • A free care park is next to the train station. It is modern and secure, but is quite far away from Le Mistralet (15-minute walk). A free shuttle service can bring you close to the apartment (informations)
