The location of the apartment was perfect for visiting the centre of Bordeaux with Tram line C being just round the corner. Also a short walk to the river through Rue Notre Dame village area that has interesting shops and cafes. You can also walk into Bordeaux centre. Apartment has quite steep stairs up to the bedroom, toilet and bathroom so you need to be nimble, my 80 year old friend managed. Sofa bed in lounge area was comfortable to sleep on. Good value for money. Would recommend it.
