Overall, our stay was fantastic.
Pros:
1) The apartment was super clean.
2) Great location. In the heart of Bordeaux’s ‘old town’.
2a) Close to public transport, bars, cafes, shops & the river.
3) The hosts communication.
4) The courtyard is a nice touch.
5) Bordeaux, in general, is pretty beautiful.
Cons:
1) Slightly damp. However, we hear this is a problem Bordeaux-wide, because of the age & style of property.
1a) The property does come with a dehumidifier!
2) A lack of natural lighting.
2a) Not so much of a problem, if you’re willing to leave ground floor shutters open whilst you’re in!
Overall, we’d both recommend to future enquirers / travellers!
