Yves takes very good personal care of this place. He is a wonderful host and cares about his guests' experiences. The place is impecably clean and well-stocked - much more so than even your above average AirB&B. There are a lot of small touches which go above and beyond from the decorations to amenities. The terrace is nice to sit out on and eat breakfast next to a tidy tropical garden which seems to be cleaned almost everyday. Yves and his wife live in the front part of the property. Access from the street is through a front door common to the building, down a hallway and then out across a small terrace garden to the self-contained unit in the back. I felt an added sense of security and service with this arrangement. Not that was neede because the neighborhood seems very safe and clean. The location is super - two blocks or so from bus line #1 which runs from the airport to downtown to the main train station. There are other buses to downtown, as well, which means very short wait times, or you can walk. A good boulangerie with unique selections and two supermarkets are within a five minute walk. The wifi and cable TV service work very well. The bathroom is narrow and long, but, like the kitchen, well-stocked with just about everything you could need. The A/C was a welcomed bonus during the heat wave that hit during the five days in May while we were visiting Bordeaux. Very quiet and effective. I wish all the AirB&B's we've stayed at were as nice as this. It was the best we have experienced in four months of travel in France.
