“The location, on Avignon's main street between the train station and the Palais des Papes, is a definite asset. Rooms are individually decorated, and the rooftop terrace-functioning as a bar-is a memorable feature. I especially appreciate the courtyard, which provides a quiet contrast to the lively street.”

staff was approachable, and they were friendly too. the hotel sits right on the main street, perfect for accessing shops. our room was quiet despite its location, offering a rooftop view from the terrace. i appreciated the responsiveness when we needed assistance.

the brownish water from the faucet was a bit odd one morning, but they said it was a system glitch. i did test the water again though, the issue seemed persistent.
