As well as being a favorite, the downtown area is home to the majority of accommodation on offer. Other parts of town, such as Bressons, Blazots, Saint-Come, Bel-Air and Michelet, are very residential and not necessarily of interest or tourist attraction. You may find a few Airbnb at lower prices than in the city center, but certainly no small bed & breakfasts or other charming hotels like the city center has to offer.
