My stay at La Maison du Frene was an absolute delight, marked by beautiful decor and exceptional cleanliness. The owners truly made me feel at home, offering not only warmth and friendliness but also invaluable assistance during my visit. The location is perfect for exploring old Vence, but the only thing to keep in mind is that there are quite a few stairs to navigate. Overall, it offers great value for the memorable experience.
