The location is pretty well connected on the tram and bus line. A quick walk and you get to the Center. The beds are very comfortable and the the kitchen has some of the basics. With kids you would need to be careful as the beds are in the basement and hall and kitchen in the ground floor. Only possible issue is that Bordeaux have a lot of mosquitoes due to the humidity and if the spray is not done, it can be problematic. To be on the safer side get some mosquito repellent before arriving at Bordeaux.
