Mel is a super-host and very attentive. The studio is well equipped right down to the last detail. It is airy and light with a lovely little kitchen and a brilliant coffee machine. Situated on the 12th floor it has a great balcony overlooking Bordeaux and is a short walk to the main train station where you can take the tram to almost anywhere or the bus to the airport. Mel greeted me upon my arrival and showed me the ropes on entering and leaving the building. One evening had difficulty with the entrance and Mel came immediately to help. He lives nearby. I was there to attend a trade show and the location for me was perfect. The studio was clean and tidy and very well decorated. I would highly recommend a stay here as you won't be disappointed.
