My stay at Ali's was really comfortable. The room has everything one needs for a short stay, and the huge window makes it feel very airy. The apartment is very clean and organized. Ali is quite a hands-off host, which I appreciated — and whenever I had a question about the house, appliances, or public transportation, he was quick to help.
The apartment is located very close to the university of Bordeaux Montaigne (15 minutes on foot, maybe less); finding food is not the easiest thing in the area, as it is very suburban.
