Very warm welcome from Marc. Location was fantastic in a lovely neighborhood. The bus into the city center leaves from right across the street and only takes about 10-15 minutes. Just steps away are an artisanale bakery, a supermarket, a terrific bio store and a gourmet takeout shop with amazing pizza. (although order well in advance as it took 90 minutes!) Great accommodation for a visit with your dog. The building has a secure backyard area perfect for early morning and evening comfort stops. Will definitely return as we fell in love with Bordeaux.
