Gregory's flat is fantastic. Greg ad his wife, Sophie are darlings and are so very helpful. The airline misplaced our luggage (for 3 days!) - so jet lagged and tired, we were rather grumpy when we reached the flat. Sophie was very helpful - directing us to St Catherine street (which is just about a 5 min walk away. The location (Rue de Parliament) is very close to the city centre - just about a 5 minute walk. The beautiful water front is a 3 minute walk. There are restaurants just below the flat. Need I say more? :) Can unabashedly recommend this place!

Some details:
If you plan to bike around Bordeaux using the Vcub public bicycles, there are stands available at a short walk.

The flat is very clean and comfortable and was stocked with some staples in the kitchen. The complimentary welcome bottle of wine was very welcome indeed!

There are a few grocery stores around the area. There is a Leader Price Express just a short walk away - I mention this for 2 reasons - 1. While the produce is not the best, it is the only grocery we found open on Sunday (it stays open till 3 PM on Sundays) 2. Francine, the grocer, is wonderful! She was extremely helpful with many interesting recommendations and tips.

Greg and Sophie are incredible about reverting with answers to queries. We found contacting them via the Airbnb app was very convenient. We used the mobile only to coordinate our arrival with Sophie. There was a lovely hand-written note with all the basic directions. The wifi works well.
