Coming from my first trip to Europe and a short stay at Paris, I have no idea what to expect from Bordeaux. Then, it was love at first sight, and this lovely apartment has a lot to do with it. The location of the place is so nice that it's within walking distance to almost all the attractions: Place de la Bourse, Grand Theatre, Grosse Cloche de Bordeaux, Monument aux Girondins, Port Calihu, Musee d'Aquitaine, and the shopping street: Rue Ste Catherine. Not to mention that it's so close to the Hotel de Ville stop of Tram line A and B, which means you can even go to the wine museum (La Cite du Vin) easily. The view of the breathtaking Cathedrale Saint-Andre, from the balcony of this apartment, is simply priceless.
The place is exactly as pictured, with tasteful decor and a full kitchen to satisfy all your cooking needs. (I'm not sure why you'll need to cook since there are so many good restaurants nearby.) The owner, Trish, was so nice to greet me when I first got there, and was so responsive to all my questions. The Internet connection in the room is very fast and the king-sized bed is very comfy. All in all, if you're by yourself or a couple to visit Bordeaux, I'd like to challenge you to find a better place/value than this apartment. Can't wait to go back!
