This was a fairy tale location! It was very clean, and the host provided all the promised amenities. Loved using the espresso maker in the morning, and there is a market/grocery right across the square that has everything you might need for a meal if you want to cook (we made breakfast or picked up pastries every morning). The square below is lively - there was a DJ and a community party the last night, a Friday, of our stay - and in the morning the noise echoes, so bring ear plugs if you are a light sleeper. This location is within walking distance of countless landmarks, restaurants, and shops. Lea was very responsive and promptly made arrangements when she couldn't be there to meet us in person to let us in. If taking a taxi from the train station or airport to the apartment, I would recommend giving the address of the Porte Cailhau or one of the restaurants on the main street across the road (i.e., 24 Quai Richelieu) - our driver was confused by trying to go directly to the address as driving is restricted in the pedestrian area behind the gate and he drove around for a while trying to figure it out, finally just dropping us off down the street. (The fact that cars are restricted is very much appreciated, just know to plan ahead). All in all, I felt like we stayed on a movie soundstage - it was so beautiful and perfect it seemed unreal.
