This space is truly spectacular! I was lucky to spend a month in this apartment - and the longer I stayed, the more I fell in love with it. It really became my home away from home. First, it is in the very best location in all of Bordeaux. While I selected this apartment with location in mind, I didn't fully appreciate how outstanding it really is until I had spent a few days in Bordeaux. Within 5 minutes you have some of the most beautiful squares in Bordeaux - Place St. Pierre, Place du Parlement, and Place Camille Julian. In addition, within a few minutes of exiting the apartment, you can walk through the Porte Caillou, and be at the river for a walk along the boardwalk. I never tired of seeing Porte Caillou - which is just at the doorstep of the apartment. When I sent photos back home, friends asked how I managed to find an apartment that has a castle outside the front door :) Within 2 min of the apartment are a few great wine stores, a carrefour for all your groceries, and multiple places to pick up the perfect baguette or sweet snack. Restaurant choices are endless, all within a minute or two. I was there a month and could not get to half of them.
The atmosphere in old town is just gorgeous, and in my opinion this apartment is in the best location of all.
The apartment itself has everything you could ever need. I could live in this apartment as is, and not need to buy a thing. It has every comfort of home. In fact, when I returned home, I missed the apartment :) I traveled a little during my stay, and was always so happy to come back to this warm and cozy space.
Both Pierre and Sylvie are great - super responsive if you have any questions. I didn't have to reach out very often, as everything was so well organized and appointed that I didn't really need anything.
I hope to return to this wonderful place. Bordeaux is amazing, as is this apartment. I can't imagine a better choice for anyone who wants to experience this beautiful town. I try not to go to the same place twice, but I suspect I will in this case :)
