Fantastic Place

We loved the Apt. It was in the perfect location to enjoy Avignon. Check-in was a little confusing but all in all okay. We played pool, backgammon, enjoyed the patio on the roof top, kitchen was great, bathroom area was great. Needs a couple new pool cues, Lots of stairs to climb, main area is a little warmer, but bedroom has its own split unit and was perfect.

Unique apartment

We enjoyed our stay during the festival in this most unique historical building. It is truly unique and one of a kind experience. It is also exceedingly large! We will always remember our stay in because of this place. The kitchen is very well equipped and the bathroom was great. We all enjoyed it.

Fantastic location, incredibly unique property

We felt like locals staying in the heart of the old city, in this historic yet super-modern apartment. The location absolutely cannot be beat. Only a five-minute walk from the Avignon market & steps from numerous restaurants. Our hosts were super-attentive, easy to reach with questions, and really accommodating. The apartment is HUGE, with high ceilings and a big kitchen/dining space. The bathroom is equipped with modern everything, and there's also a big washer & dryer. Be aware that you will be walking up a bunch of stairs, and the distance from the bedroom to the bathroom is long in the middle of the night. (You may want to bring a rechargable nightlight or two). A great alternative to any hotel nearby. We would definitely stay here again.

Fabulous place

We stayed here for a month. It is a unique and stunning place…every bit as impressive in person than in the pictures, if not more so. Lots of space, comfortable seating and bed, awesome kitchen which is well equipped. You get both a tub and shower as well as two sinks so perfect for a couple. And we were grateful to have a washer and dryer — the latter rarely available in Europe rentals. Everything you need is provided. There was a minor mixup at check-in but the owner took care of it quickly. The woman who cleans gave us the orientation tour. It is fortunate that my husband knew French or we wouldn’t have been able to understand a word. There was a second person we met later whose English is excellent so worth asking for her. It is five flights of stairs which we did not mind. The location is perfect….right in the middle of the old city, ten minutes from the train & bus station. We did several day trips to nearby cities: Arles, Uzes, Ille de las Sorgue, Apt, Nimes, etc. Best VRBO we’ve had out of many!

Mindblowingly memorable

This was the best VRBO we have stayed in worldwide, by a significant margin! It was perfectly located, clean and cleverly decorated. There were so many fascinating idiosyncracies throughout - it was a favorite for both us as a couple and our teenage children. Such a beautiful and meaningful stay proactively engaging host, and comfortable creative surroundings.

One-off stay in Avignon

A beautiful and unique place to stay in the heart of Avignon. Great base to explore the city and the festival and also to hang out in--not least for the stunning roof terrace. The host is super attentive and kind. Strongly recommend if you're in Avignon with up to 4 people and can splurge.

Exceptional place to stay

This is truly a standout place to stay in the beautiful town of Avignon. Centrally located, beautifully restored, tastefully decorated and older than the Palais Du Pape itself. Marianne was a wonderful host. Definitely would stay again if ever in Avignon.

Perfect stay in Avignon

Marianne was a wonderful host. The property was centrally located and very spacious. The kitchen was fully stocked with pots and pans and we stayed in several nights to eat after buying delicious food at the nearby markets. This was a most memorable vacation in a wonderful part of France. Merci encore Marianne!!

The highlight of our trip

This was the most memorable part of our trip across France. It was perfect blend of thoughtful decoration and historic structure. We experienced a lot in our trip but the one thing that we will remember years from now, will be this loft. It was so special. Marianne was wonderful. Maybe we'll be back again?

Fantastic stay in a great city - book without hesitation!

This place was incredible. It’s much bigger than it looks in the pictures! Marianne was a fantastic host and gave us a great history of the building. The location is perfect - easy to walk to all the major sights and tons of restaurants and shopping right out the door, but the apartment itself is very private. Best VRBO we’ve booked by far, and it’s not even close for second place. If you have a car, park in the Les Halles market parking and the property is an easy 5 minute walk from there, even with your luggage.

Perfect in Every Way

Everything about this place is amazing... the history, the location, the decor, the hostess! It is located right in the center of Avignon making everything you'd want to see in close proximity. The home was beautiful and relaxing - immensely comfortable and contains everything you'd need for your stay. The rooftop patio is an extra bonus where you can overlook the city while lounging comfortably. The owner was so kind and gave us a fascinating history of the property. We would absolutely stay again!

Absolutely Amazing

I have only wonderful things to say about this property and our stay there. It is beautiful, unique, spacious, clean, comfortable, and well-located. It is on a quiet street only a short walk from the TI (in addition to being useful for information, several tours use it for a meeting point for departure), and still within easy walking distance to the train station if you want to take a day trip from Avignon. Marianne was delightful, and my family loved staying there. It's not often that you get to stay in a place like this!

An amazing place

This place is so nice you won't believe your eyes! It is so nice we wanted to just stay in and enjoy the space. Once I saw the fully equipped kitchen and the beautiful dinning space I knew where I wanted to have dinner in every night. I cooked myself but it would be interesting to bring in a chef as well. I took the recommendation of another reviewer and parked at les Halles. (It's 20 euros a day, or 30 for a lost ticket 😉) This is the place to be if you want to enjoy time together.

Stunning property

This is an incredibly unique and stunning property. Tremendously spacious and rich in history. Very comfortable for my family. Located on quiet street yet near to anything you may need in Avignon. Served as an excellent home base for our day trips river kayaking, historical site visiting, vineyard touring, etc. Beds, linens, kitchen equip all very nice and comfortable. The host is very kind and considerate...even dropped off croissants and baguette throughout our stay. Loved it. Best vrbo!

Magnifique!

This property is nothing short of amazing. The pictures do not do it justice. This IS the place to stay when you are in Avignon. There is nothing like it. The neighborhood, the nearby restaurants, the quiet, the safety, the beauty, and there is not one detail missed on this amazingly restored 13th century church. Marianna has clearly put her heart and soul into this place and it shows. I cannot recommend staying here more! If I could rate this higher than 5 stars I would.
