Pierre has a lovely, clean apartment in a great location of Bordeaux. We felt very comfortable there and enjoyed our stay very much. We are fine taking stairs, but if stairs are a problem for you, then it’s important to know that there are 59 steps from the front door of the building to the front door of the apartment. Here are some Pros and Cons:
Pros:
Location is in the charming Chartrons neighborhood near the River.
There is a super convenient stop for the tram (B line) literally right in front of the building.
The inside of the apartment is very nicely decorated and very clean
Comfortable bed
Nice shower
Smart TV
Cons:
Common areas of the building are poorly maintained with cracked, peeling plaster and hallways are poorly lit (we needed to use our cell phone flashlights at night in the hallways), keys in locks require some finesse to open.
This is the owner’s home who was away while we were there and we shared his small refrigerator (1/2 shelf for our use).
We enjoyed our stay very much and used Pierre’s home as a base camp for exploring Bordeaux and the region.
