We had a pleasant stay in Delphine's apartment which had everything we needed for a 5 day visit to Bordeaux.
Chartrons is an old area of the city becoming gentrified and redeveloped and the street and exterior of the building gives no clues to the bright apartment inside and beautiful garden. The kitchen was well equipped and the sofa bed was comfy once we got used to it (our daughter had the double bed!). The local area was great for us as v close to the friends we were visiting but the street is a major thoroughfare so a bit noisy etc. It is a short walk to the Riverside, the tram and the attractions of the redeveloped docks, including the Cite du Vin and Les Bassins de Lumières.
The only downside personally was that we found parking really difficult in the local area. It's an issue generally in Bordeaux and whilst there are non-"payant" streets close by, they were constantly packed during our visit, even on street corners etc. We ended up parking several blocks away most days which was a little stressful particularly with a small tired child to get home.
Overall though it proved a good base for our trip to a lovely city.
