I visited Bordeaux with a friend and neither of us had visited the city before. Within a couple of hours of booking our stay, Laurent had emailed me all the information that we would need, including photographs.
When we got to the apartment, it was clean and tidy. The apartment is located towards the end of the 'C' tram but was actually a really convenient position to have access to the city whilst being part of a quiet neighbourhood. Whilst there is an Aldi opposite the tram stop, if you want a proper supermarché, walk a few more minutes north along Rte De Toulouse to the Auchan where you can get a lot more variety.
I would definitely consider staying at Laurent's again - it had everything that we needed at a very reasonable price and a great location.
