The apartment is in a great location near the public garden and within a short distance of the tram line. You can easily walk to the city center if you like. It's surrounded by small local shops and grocery stores and not far away from a larger Auchan.
The area is quite safe. We walked back home at night and even though there were not a lot of people on the street we felt safe - even safer than in some areas in the city center.
The studio is big enough for 2 people. Really neat! You got everything you need in the kitchen like pots, pans, dishes, etc. - great cooker and oven.
We still had some cold nights but it felt dry and warm inside.
Believe it or, it was pretty quiet at night even though it is at street level. We stayed for 5 nights and had no trouble sleeping at night. We were surprised at how quiet it was. We loved it. Oh, and the bed.... I think we would need a full review to describe how comfortable the bed was. WOW!!!!
Sandra is a great host. She was really accommodating. We had some last-minute issues with our flight but she was keen on finding a way to help us out with our stay. Being overseas visitors to Bordeaux, we also needed some help to find our way around with some paperwork still required because of COVID and she was happy to help us and quick to come up with answers. Amazing stay!
