Cathy and her husband Julien were very helpful hosts. Before I got to Bordeaux Cathy had sent straightforward directions to her home. They were also very quick to respond to messages! Julien was kind enough to lend me an EU adapter to charge my phone as mine was not compatible with the French sockets.
They were very helpful with suggestions.
They actually brought out a map and showed me literally everything they could think of to visit in Bordeaux which I wasn’t expecting.
The space was very clean, the room, bathroom and the kitchen area. I really liked the studio, it’s small but practical and it’s decorated very nicely. It has an antique feel to it. The bed is very noisy as it’s a sofa bed so any movement triggers the sound but it was comfy.
The outside area could do with some cleaning due to cobwebs etc. Also there are mosquitoes and insects attracted to the light so shut the door quickly when you come in!
The house is about 28 mins by bus to get to the Central area and the bus is easily accessible from the property. Hosts are very, very hospitable! You can definitely stay with them if you’re ever in Bordeaux!
