Christophe's place is a lovely little zen den on the outskirts of Bordeaux city. It's about a 20 minute walk into the centre and just under a 10 minute walk to the closest tram station. Christophe was on holiday for most of our stay but whilst he was there he was friendly and helpful (especially when I was ill and he was keen to help me out) and the apartment and roof terrace are lovely. I would mention though that we found the noise from the street very loud, especially considering so many reviews saying it was a very quiet area, which rather baffled us - there were binmen loudly passing by at 6am each morning (including Saturday!), regular loud buses and cars/bikes and on Friday night a local bar played loud music until gone 1am. This is definitely not a reason not to stay here, it's nothing a pair of earplugs wouldn't sort out! Other than that a nice experience.
