“location”

+ The hotel is located right beside the Office du Tourisme and convenient for going around Avignon intramuros.
Okay hotel if you're the adventurous kind I guess.

- Though the courtyard looks nice from the outside, the hotel is old and really needs renovation. There are no lifts and we didn't realize that we booked a room with shared bathroom. There was only one bath and two toilets to be shared with everyone and if you're not lucky, those are found on another floor. The room was old and the heater was rusty. There was a fan for the summer. The prices at all do not justify the quality. It costs almost the same as the hotel nearby where we transferred. Go to Hotel Bristol instead. The owner also made us pay some penalty for cancelling and they were debating on how much!

“Ideal location. Basic budget hotel.”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 28 July 2011

As the name suggests, this hotel is right in the centre of Avignon. It was the cheapest hotel we found in the centre of town so we were expecting it to he quite basic. It was. The room was very small and pretty dusty. We booked a shared bathroom but regretted it. There was only one shower and one toilet for all the rooms. We often had long waits to use them. Also they were quite dirty and down two floors from our room. The staff were very nice though and let me use a bathroom in another free room. There was a sink and a fan in the room.

“Never again...”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 19 June 2011
1
person found this review helpful

We were staying in this hotel for 1 night and it was too long:
1. We were provided with keys from the room, which was already occupied - definitely we were not leaving our keys at reception.
2. I had perception that the building itself is dangerous to leave in, ceiling in our room was U-shaped, and I am seriousely thinking that it might fall down one day.
3. Room was dirty - hairs in bathroom, chewing gum on the bed etc.

On the positive side is only location - close to all sights of interest.

“Worst hotel experience ever”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 11 May 2011
1
person found this review helpful

We've never had such a bad experience in our lifetime. Arriving there we were informed the hotel did not have lifts (though they advertised it on the website) and in exchange where offered dingy rooms that have not been cleaned in years in the basement.
Staff was plainly rude and scary - he was threatening to us (2 young women) - we should have reported him to the police but we were stunned by the attitude he had towards us.
We left the hotel as we refused to spend the night there and we were refused a refund.

“RIDDLED WITH BED BUGS”

person found this review helpful

This hotel should be closed down and fumigated our daughter had 200 bites from staying at this place that should not even have one star. Also we understand it does not have a proper fire escape. My daughter and gher friend rate it 0 out of 10.
