Louis is the perfect host. Helpful, charming and full of great ideas and recommendations.
The little apartment we stayed in was lovely and fully equipped with everything you might need for your short stay in Bordeaux. Very French and nice to have everything on one level - no little stairs to a mezzanine bedroom.
For long distance travellers or older people with heavy luggage the third floor location without a lift might not be ideal. There is also no washing machine or dishwasher.
The main disappointment for us came when new guests occupied the attic rooms above. Being an older building, perfect soundproofing would be impossible and you should expect some noise being in the city, but when heavy footed noises above wake you after midnight and early morning as walls shake and glass rattles , it's unreasonable. This of course may have just been our bad luck, but we lost at least two nights sleep.
Otherwise the location is ideal to see all the wonderful sights of Bordeaux by foot or by tram and the quiet street is near many amenities and supermarkets. We still had a wonderful time and would recommend Louis' rooms and Bordeaux itself very highly.
