We are staying at the Hotel Massena downtown Nice. They indicated the SHUTTLE BUS Number 98 is an option from the airport. It costs 6 € per person one way and is steps away from a bus stop. Sounds like an inexpensive option but I'm wondering if this is just a regular local bus with no real room for luggage or is it a larger coach bus with room for luggage underneath. Anyone ever used this? Thanks for any help.

It is a large open bus for travelers to and from the airport. Therecwere some seats but lots of room for luggage. It is a very short trip. We used it both ways, to and from airport.

In case you are not aware, you can google search these kind info and get an answer in seconds. Google search "nice bus 98 image" and out pop several pictures:

I am only slightly computer savvy so I would not have thought you could google such a thing as what the bus looks like! Both of you alleviated my fear. Thanks so much.

To clarify, you keep your luggage with you; it does not go underneath. Have your hotel give you the exact name of the stop where you need to get off. Nice is wonderful.
