I've recently stayed at Marie's nice space. I am a frequent user of airbnb and very demanding, and truely exceeded my expectations:
- the space is incredible, it can easily accommodate 4 and it as what it needs. It is very warming, with a simple and clean decoration. Although it is antique, everything is perfectly functioning and carefully preserved. The wood floor gives it a sense of cosyness and it is very "frenchly""
- Marie was a very nice host, explaining everything and communicating both french and english. She provided also important information, and was really very honest and trustworthy, witch is something key when you are at a foreign country. She was almost always available and although living in the same building, was always able to leaving us comfortable and respecting our space
- Bordeaux is a really nice city and this apartment is well located. It is not completely city centre making it very quiet and with just 8-10 min walk to the river or Place Victoire, providing the best of two worlds. It is next to a big street with everything, a Carrefour supermarket, a boulangerie with really nice bread and croissants and 4 min walk to tram stop.
- you should really give it a chance!
