Bernard and Nicole's apartment was everything we had hoped it to be, and more. We stayed here for the month of June, using it as a home-base to explore Bordeaux, Médoc, St. Emilion, Arcachon and Cape-Ferret. It was immaculate, bright with beautiful tall windows, a fully-equipped open-concept kitchen, REALLY comfortable beds, centrally located and on a pedestrian-only street which meant that we were never bothered by car or traffic noise. But the real life-saver in this apartment is the air conditioning. We survived a 5 day heat wave with the temperature reaching 42C, and we were as cool as cucumbers in the apartment. Bernard and Nicole were very friendly and quick to respond anytime we had a question. We rented bikes from Pierre Qui Roule, just down the street and they gave us a great deal for the month (5eu/day). Right around the corner is a Carrefour for basic groceries, and a little further (5 minute walk) is the super grocery store Auchan where you can get anything you need. We highly recommend this apartment: Don't hesitate to book it (PS There is a great discount for a monthly rate: well worth it)!
