We didn’t meet Élodie, instead, her husband introduced the apartment to us and he was friendly. He also gave us hints what attractions to visit in Bourdeaux. His english was not very fluent, though good enough that we were able to understand everything.
As we had read from the reviews in advance, the bed was not very stable. However, Élodie’s husband told us we could place the mattress on the floor and we did that. It was okay that way.
We faced some problems before the check-in since we didn’t get any response to our calls or messages until just couple of hours before the suggested check-in time. That felt unsafe since we started to doubt are we even going to be able to stay at this place since we hadn’t got any, not even one, answer.
Afterwards, when we had been told why Élodie couldn’t answer it was understandable. I guess she will be able to respond in the future.
They offered some breakfast which we didn’t expect, what a nice surprise for an accommodation of that price. The place is perfect for budget travellers: decent and very clean room with a low price.
