Caroline's apartment is not to be overlooked. The location is perfect for access to the centre of Bordeaux and trams across the city. Quirky and homely, the apartment provides a great base to stay for your trip. Emilie (Caroline's friend) was there to greet us on time and was very quick to respond to emails and text messages before, during and upon departure of our trip.
There were just a few very minor things which warranted not giving it 5 stars, and may not matter in the slightest to future guests. I found the kitchen amenities to be not upto complete scratch, i.e, the cutlery, cups + pans were not spotlessly clean. In general, the kitchen didn't strike me as spotlessly clean. No salt and pepper, and some condiments were out of date in the cupboard. Only 2 normal teabags left and no sugar. Don't get me wrong, it is not Caroline's responsibility to provide these!! But the apartment in our Paris accomodation after Bordeaux, provided everything by the owner. Owners don't have to provide these things but it is a considerate touch if they do, and that's were the extra star comes into play. We also had to hang out to dry her bedding washing all over the flat (asked by Emilie) as the dryer didn't dry them properly. Again very minor issue! This in no way should deter someone from booking here as it is amazing value for money, and I wouldn't hesitate to book again!
