Stayed here for a few hot days in June - Bordeaux is a beautiful city and Christophe's place is right where you want to be - on St Remi, seconds from the main shopping street St Catherine. You are surrounded by bars, restaurants and things to see. You can easily walk to all the various attractions from here.
The apartment is on the top floor with no lift available - its an easy climb for the fit and healthy but beware if you have any mobility issues. The apartment itself is smallish but perfectly functional - kitchen and bathroom well equipped. Sofa bed and double futon available to sleep on - there was two of us, but you could easily squeeze another 1 in. To be honest, we spent very little time in the apartment as was busy exploring the city but its perfectly functional for a few days.
Also, Christophe is a pleasure to deal with and very happy to help with any issues or suggestions.
Things to improve:
- the main door on the street is an absolute nightmare to open - its a really old wooden door and its incredibly tricky to unlock.
- there are four keys on the key chain but you only use two - they all look the same so its very confusing. Labelling these and/or reducing to two keys would be better
- there is an air conditioning unit but its not functional at the moment - this wasn't advertised as included but it would be good if this could be fixed for future guests on hot days.
Other than thats a very pleasurable stay and a great place for a few days in Bordeaux.
