Antoine was there to greet us when we arrived ... We took a taxi from the airport which was very convenient but because of traffic we were half an hour late to arrive. Antoine explained everything very quickly, probably because we were late, but it was sufficient. The apartment is lovely: clean, bright, very spacious, well equipped, and perfectly situated to explore Bordeaux. My sister and I stayed for 6 days and did not run out of things to do. There are some excellent restaurants nearby: Vin Rue Neuve offers a great formule for lunch....wonderful food and very good value. There is a very good artisan boulangerie 5 minutes away near Place St Michel. The Marche de Capuchins is also very close and a great place to pick up fresh and delicious ingredients for lunch. If you see the young woman selling flourless chocolate cake for €5 buy it instantly...you won't regret it! We loved our visit to Bordeaux and would return to the apartment in Rue Neuve in a heartbeat!
