Beautiful and spacious apartment, really comfortable bed. Great location within comfortable walking distance of points of interest, Cite du vin being about 30 minutes away, really nice walk along the quay. Just by luck we picked a great time to be in the city with the tall ships, food and wine festivals,4 nights of free concerts, and music day all taking place. We tried all of Stephane's recommendations for fromagie, boulangerie, restaurants and markets, each one was fantastic. Wine tour to St Emilon was great. Loved the city, and the people were so nice, will definitely return. In relation to the bars across the street, the noise was loud on the Wednesday night, which is an open mike night. We had read about the bars before we went and took some earplugs to help getting to sleep if needed, the Wednesday was the only night we used them.
