Sébastien’s apartment is so perfect for a visit to Bordeaux – literally steps away from everything in the heart of the city, and still a quiet and private escape at night. We found the apartment absolutely ideal for a couple – very chic but also classic, with just the right amount of space to relax, do a little packing, and sleep comfortably. The temperature on a summer’s night was perfect, and the apartment was still beautifully quiet even with the windows open. The shower is hand-held over the bathtub, which isn’t the most convenient, but worked well, which is better than some traditional shower setups. We arrived by car and took Sébastien’s advice to park at Camille Jullian (so close and convenient) – communication with Sébastien was very easy, and he met us on arrival in the afternoon. The apartment is also minutes by foot from Bordeaux’s very efficient tram, so getting to the main train station on check-out was also extremely easy, even though we needed to leave very early in the morning. I couldn’t think of a better place to call home during a stay in Bordeaux!
