The apartment is really perfect. There are two bedrooms each with own shower etc. For a family of four / five or two couples or just four / five friends Helen's flat is the place to be. It's absolutely calm, very clean, tidy and proper. The accommodation is very well equipped ad you find nearly everything you need for a short stay. The terrace is wonderful for having breakfast or in the night a glass of wine. The flat is located in Chartrons the best quarter in B.., well connected to everything. It's a three minutes walk to the Quais (bio market on thursdays; big market on sundays), where you can bike, run or just walking around, 2 minutes to the art museum - already the building is amazing, don't miss the roof and the arc en reve (architecture museum as a part of the art museum). Last but not least: the jacuzzi is perfect after a long day in Bordeaux to relax and to fill up new strength. It 's definitely the best flat you can find in B.
The host Helene is a super, super, super host. Helene is very kind and helpful. We came to B. with a rented car and had to return it at the main station. Because it is not that easy to find and arrange Helene accompanied me to the station and organized everything. It took us over an hour to do this: once again, mille mercis, Helene. Helene organized our taxi to the airport as well (20 minutes)!!!
A supermarket is just 30 meters away from the entrance. Don't bother you: you hear nothing of the business etc. There are a lot of restaurants and cafes around. If you go to Cité du vin, take the ship, the station is 5 minutes away. You don't need a car in B. and in this accommodation, it is well linked to two tram lines, ship Lin, etc.
We spent 5 days in Bordeaux, and we are really impressed, it's a little paradise.
