We arrived in Bordeaux using the tram and it dropped us off within a few blocks of Henry's place, which is conveniently located in the historic part of town. He helped us with the directions using public transit and it was cheap and convenient. Henry was at the apartment and greeted us with a bottle of local wine and fresh canalé, a traditional Bordeaux dessert. He walked us through a map of the town and pointed out some attractions to see that were close by. Henry was very kind and helpful. Now, we could not be more impressed with his place. The pictures on his listing don't really do it justice. You really have to see it to get the full effect of how awesome this place is. The main living room/kitchen area is great, with the gothic style archways and all, but the second floor bedroom was unreal. Two gothic arches intersect on the ceiling creating a dramatic effect and a real historic feel. The place was very functional and can accommodate a lot of people. We can't say enough about how much we enjoyed our stay at Henry's place. We hope to come back to Bordeaux again and be lucky enough to stay at Henry's place.
