We stayed in Bordeaux for four nights and Isabelle and her family made us feel at home from the beginning. The room is really nice and clean and the bathroom is on the same floor so it is quite comfortable. There a some cats in the house but if you like animals it is perfect (and you can lock the room if you don‘t want them there).
The area is calm but just around the corner you can find everything from boulangeries, restaurants, bars to public transport and parks. You can walk to the city centre in less than 15 minutes. We loved our stay in Rue Malleret and totally recommend this host:)
