Jeanne was a brilliant host, she explained the accommodation in detail and left a comprehensive set of instructions. But despite this managing the loft was easy with all it's modern facilities and technology. The loft is spacious and provides comfortable usable space for 2 couples or 5 individuals.
The loft is clean, and all the bedding etc. felt fresh and was spotless, glazing was beautifully clean but one end needs wiping down as suffers from splashes from the pool, leaving marks.
The kitchen appliances and utensils were extensive which made cooking simple, large fridge for a weeks shopping etc. The location is very quiet and a very easy journey into town by foot (20 mins), bike (10 mins) or tram (15 mins). The pool is OK for a cool down on a hot day - but you do have to do some maintenance on it for anything more than a 3 day stay. There is sun on the deck from around 2pm to 5pm.
There's a large supermarket/bakery/pharmacy (and large public swimming pool) within a pleasant 5 minutes walk, the river front is 10 minutes away. The neighbourhood feels safe, and is quiet.
The wi-fi connection is fast but intermittent, whereas the direct LAN connection via Ethernet was incredibly fast and reliable, with a printer available etc.
The TV in the lounge is French only programmes, but UK news is available on the set in the bedroom.
Not sure we'd spend another 2 weeks in Bordeaux as we've 'done it', but if passing through would definitely consider staying at Jeannes again.
Her private collection of music/stereo/books where a delight to share for 2 weeks, and she is very open to sharing and advising on these, so you won't need to take any music or books..!
