The warm greeting from Sabine was a wonderful way to start our vacation in Avignon. She was delightful and extremely helpful with lots of good information on what to see, and where to go. The room was spacious with our own private patio. The apartment was clean with everything you needed. We even had a small kitchen and took full use of it, having lunch on the patio. It was quiet and serene, exactly what we hoped for.
