Apartment is in fabulous location in Bordeaux and the welcome from Antoine gave us a great sense of the local amenities at our doorstep. Excellent boulangerie across the road and fromagerie a few doors down. You do need to be prepared to walk up 4 flights of stairs (100 steps) as the apartment is on the top floor. We were surprised how quiet the apartment was for how close it is to the action of Bordeaux. No air conditioning but two skylight windows that open and cool the apartment down quickly, particularly with the cooler September evenings. Fans provided also did a great job of keep the place cool. Not sure how hot it may be at the height of summer. We loved the apartment and our stay in Bordeaux and the location and amenity of the apartment certainly played a hand in our time being so enjoyable.
