The apartment was spacious and a great base for us in Avignon. There are many dining and market options nearby. Hosts were great and easy to contact if needed. The only thing to be aware of is that parking in the area is quite difficult (for much of old Avignon). When being dropped off by taxi we walked about 5 minutes to save a very slow drive in the city. ##### Stephanie Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Sheilah 26 May 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### would recommend Ours was a short stay of 1 night but overall we were happy with the experience.

We enjoyed the air conditioning the hotel had to offer in the rooms AAA we happened to hit a warm spell at the time of our visit. The lobby is fine, the elevators smaller than one might expect at a 4 star hotel, but all in all the photos of the facility are fairly accurate. It is a nice place to stay for the money you pay. ##### Mario Stayed 1 night in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Massimiliano 21 Jul 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Very nice hotel wonderful breakfast in the patio.

The staff are very friendly and helpful. Bed comfort is very good. We discovered a good bistro down the road - the midi-minuit - which actually closes at 10:30 (bizarre given the name). Looked at Georges bistro but was overcrowded and too noisy. If you arrive late, parking is free in the street. ##### Richard Stayed 1 night in Feb 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### James 19 Nov 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The front desk staff was helpful in making copies, requesting taxis, & providing info. ##### James Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Justin 1 Jul 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities My wife and I went for 2 nights and had an excellent experience.

While it’s certainly convenient if you need to take the train, the area feels unsafe at night and it is extremely dark, obscured. Almost like if the city lights were dimmed down.
