We enjoyed our stay here quite a bit! It's within easy walking distance of virtually everything in Monte Carlo (though I'd recommend taking a bus up to the old town area), but keep in mind that Monte Carlo is a _very_ hilly city. There are multiple public elevators and escalators to help you get around, so it's not so bad once you learn where those are (before we learned that, we ended up doing ~70 flights of stairs on one day; it's _very_ hilly).
Getting to the train station with access to Nice, Cannes, and other locales is quick; maybe 10 min walk. The casino is also about 10 min walk, and there's lots of great restaurant options both down the hill and to the east, all within the same ~10-15 min. The immediate few blocks are fairly residential and there's not a lot, but the blocks are small, so getting to cafes and restaurants is never hard.
Within the apartment, the amenities were great; everything was comfortable and fully usable. There was a nice breeze when opening the windows, the beds were cozy, plenty of room for luggage, shower was nice, etc. The only issue we had was around noise. We're from a small quiet town which is MUCH less busy than Monte Carlo, so the volume of scooters going by behind the apartment was a bit disruptive. Also, they're building a building behind, which added to the noise. The windows did a good job of cutting it down though, so it wasn't too disruptive; we slept fine.
Overall great host, great apartment, and we had a great time!
