The accommodation was very good, and just as described. The apartment is in the middle of the cultural and nightlife area of Bordeaux, and thus very easy to find everything. The journey from the airport was straight forward and efficient, using a bus/shuttle and then a local tram.

The host, Nicole, was there to meet us and explain where the shops, restaurants, and other niceties are located. Nicole's English is very good and she took time to talk to us and explain what can be done in Bordeaux and the surrounding areas.

Nicole was the perfect host, and if someone asked me to recommend a place to stay in Bordeaux (or France in general), then I would point them to Nicole.
