Fantastic! - give it a try
I spent three weeks in Sprachcaffe in Nice studying French, I started from the ZERO level and I must admit that they managed to teach me quite a lot. The staff is really nice and teachers are helpful and patient. But what makes Nice stand out is the atmosphere, the people (I went there in June so there were only a few of us in the school and I made many true friends there!) and the beach - I bet that you will spend every night at the beach, drinking "juice" ;P with the people from school, talking (by the way 80% of the students were from Spanish speaking countries), laughing and listening to people playing guitars, etc. AMAZING! I can honestly recommend Sprachcaffe :)
