Great location, spacious, but needs better care
The location of the loft is ideal for those who want to be in the old city of Vence. it is steps away from one of the main city doors, and steps away from great restaurants and shops. The loft has a spacious living room with an open kitchen, which has good amenities. the bedroom is cramped. The views from the living room are great. the terrace upstairs has beautiful views, but it gets very hot during the day, and is hard to access, with spiral, narrow stairs.
On the negative side, the loft is dusty, and could use better cleaning. I did quite a bit of cleaning the first couple of days to try to get rid of the smell (and it helped). The pillows in the bedroom were old and smelly, so we ended up buying 3 new ones, which we left in the left.
As for parking, we tried to find the 7 euros one but did not succeed; however, an older gentleman told us to avoid it anyway, because it is not monitored and his mirror was broken in it. Best is to park in one of the main lots (Toreille, Jardin), then go to the office at level -1 in Jardin and get the weekly pass for 55 euros, unlimited entries. In our case, Toreille did not have any weekly passes left, so we had to stay at Jardin.
Note that you are pretty much on your own. The agent arranged for us to pick up the key from her father, who lives nearby, but we never saw her. Basic questions like where do we throw the garbage took her more than 24 hours to answer. when we left, we had to throw the key inside her dad's home because no one was there to take it from us.
