Old world charm meets new world convenience!
The unit has been modernized with features such as air con, modern plumbing fixtures, lighting and some USB outlets.
The kitchen is well equipped with nice utensils should you wish to cook.
The three bedrooms and the large main living space all have separate air conditioners that can get the rooms down to 19C should you like it that cool. All the rooms have doors to isolate them from the main hall to maintain a cool temperature.
We visited it in August during the more frequent heat waves with temps in the low to mid 30C range.
There is an outdoor sitting space with potted greenery just off the upstairs primary bedroom. It is a great place to sit.
The main living area is a large, tall inviting space made for gathering. The unit is very clean and organized with many shelving units to store your things. The bedding was supportive.
It’s in a great location in the Hangars area by the river. The Hangar area has a variety of good restaurants that you can eat outside under shaded canopies It is directly adjacent to the paved river path. You can watch the walkers, runners, bicyclists, dogs, electric scooters and such go by while you gaze at the river while you wine and dine. A gentle breeze often joins you.
The tram stop for the tram that takes you to and from downtown Bordeaux is a minute or two walk from the front door.
If you leave from Paris try to take the 200mph bullet train that gets you to the Bordeaux St Jean train station nonstop in two hours. There are public transportation options at the Bordeaux train station that can get you right to your door via the tram. Taxis are plentiful also.
A pass to the parking garage directly across the street is a value added benefit of which we took advantage. We rented a car at in the city center for a few days and ventured out into the French countryside to see the wine country and visited several chateaux. Being able to park the car safely across the street in the garage was very convenient.
There is a well provisioned grocery store a minute’s walk away.
Jenny is a most excellent host. She gives you a portfolio of highlights of the city and region including restaurants and attractions.
Her communication is the best. She makes sure that your stay is the most pleasant it can be.
We would stay there again. Our group of two married couples had plenty of room while staying in comfort.

Well done Jenny!
