Right from the first enquiry to meeting with Laurence, we had a fantastic experience! She was helpful and accommodating to our questions and needs, which was a big boon as we were travelling with two young children. She checked in with us regularly and offered specific help and instructions, which were greatly appreciated.
When we arrived at Bordeaux, she was at the main street to greet us to walk us to the apartment. It was exactly as per the photos. Well-kept place with a whole host of amenities, unbeatable location, with several nice restaurants just round the corner. All the main shops were within walking distance, even for kids, which is just perfect for us!
To beat the summer heat, Laurence welcomed us with juice, milk (for the kids) and cold water, even though she doesn't stay nearby. She spent time to orientate us to the city centre with a collection of brochures and name cards, and recommended a Sunday farmers' market where the locals usually visit. It turned out to be one of the highlights of our Bordeaux trip. Our boys soaked up the atmosphere too.
This is definitely a strong recommendation from our family and we will certainly not hesitate to stay there again!

Laurence était extrêmement chaleureuse et obligeante depuis notre premier émail. Nous apprécions beaucoup son aide car nous voyageons autour de France avec deux petits enfants.
L'appart est exactement comme les photos -- lumineux, bien gardé, bien équippé. De plus, il est très bien situé dans la centre-ville.
Lorsque notre arrivée à Bordeaux, Laurence nous a accueilli avec des boissons froides et des guides touristiques, et a passé du temps à nous orienter autour de la centre-ville. Le marché des Quais qu'elle nous avait recommandé était pour les petits, une excursion très merveilleuse!
Nous n'hésitons pas de visiter Bordeaux et rester chez Laurence encore!
