Bordeaux is a great city with lots of restaurants, great food, a wide range of drinks and plenty of things to do and there surely isn't many better locations to base yourself than Raphael's apartment. The apartment is in the center of Bordeaux and is short distance from the majority of the amenities that the city has to offer. The tram line is only around the corner with the train station only a short journey on the tram. The apartment is really nice and well decorated, helping you feel at home in a new place. Raphael is very helpful and will always offer assistance on any matter that you have. He will help direct you around the city, filling you in on some of the hot spots in the city and also the ordinary things that tourists may not be aware of. Overall our stay there was very pleasant, with the location really being a big plus and our time in Bordeaux has definitely been improved by the advice received by the host.
