Virginie's place is really close to a tram stop to explore the center of Bordeaux. The parking situation is kind of lax in the area, it seems, everyone just does whatever. Obviously without blocking exits, driveways, and walkways. The little studio is part of a courtyard and it's really nice. The space is not gigantic, but for me, as one person it was perfect. There are loads of tourist-aids in the room, with picture books and maps. Virginie was also very helpful in telling me recommendations about things to do in the area. Bordeaux itself is a very walkable city. The tram is the convenient option if you plan on drinking, but, in my experience (July 2017) there are *many* parking garages for ~2.50 euro/hr in the area (city center) that let you park your car. Once in city center, most of the attractions can be walked to within a 15 minute radius. Thank you Virginie, for letting me use the studio as a hub for my adventures, it was wonderful. Merci!
