This apartment is comfortable, very clean, and nicely located in the historical center of Bordeaux. We arrived and departed from Bordeaux's St. Jean train station. My advice is to pack lightly, and if you aren't familiar with the tram system and if you don't speak some French, then it may be best to get a taxi or an Uber ride to the Intercontinental Grand Hotel, then, using Google Maps' walking directions, you should be able to get to the apartment within 7 to 8 minutes. Wear comfortable, sturdy shoes!
