A wonderful time with great facilities We had an enjoyable stay in Bordeaux, and very much liked staying in Maryse’s apartment. Although it’s located right in the heart of the city, with lots of bars and restaurants nearby, the noise at street level never disrupted our sleep on the fifth floor. The apartment itself was clean and comfortable, with good facilities for cooking. We ate in the apartment for a few nights during our stay, using produce bought at the neighbourhood bakers, and at the nearby supermarkets. There are also plenty of good restaurants within walking distance of the apartment. The city’s excellent tram and bus network makes travelling around very easy. Maryse was a very good host. She met us at the entrance, and gave us a tour of the apartment, and offered advice on getting around, dining out and shopping. She went out of her way to resolve a problem with the WiFi (which was not her fault), and very kindly left us some wine and beer. We have no hesitation in recommending Maryse’s apartment to anyone considering a visit to Bordeaux.
