THE GOOD: fantastic access to many great restaurants, landmarks, tram lines, shops, and the Garonne river. A quick 10-15min tram ride from Gare Saint-Jean. Laurence had great communication and check-in was very simple.
THE BAD: the bed is a foldaway, not a standard bed frame, and we found its mattress uncomfortable. The noise outside cannot be understated, especially as it was too hot to close the windows, which do not have netting or mesh drapes to keep the mosquitos out (there were many). The sound of the early morning street cleaning vehicle was loud enough to shake the walls, someone smashed a glass bottle right outside the front door, and while eating dinner at the table we saw two separate drunk lads relieving their bladders in the street right below.
Overall, very central location, but too central for our tastes.
