We just had a wonderful stay at Sam's place. It is in a great and very convenient location - old city centre is very accessible by foot or bus/tram ride - while in a very quiet, safe residential neighborhood. The place itself is as gorgeous as in the picture if not more. The interior is modern, comfortable (we slept sooo well), very well equipped, and it lacks in nothing, but if you ever need anything Sam is always there to help make your stay the most comfortable and relaxing possible. The garden/pool is as idyllic as everyone has described it - offering such a well-appreciated rest morning/mid-day or evening.
Sam and his wife are adorable, amazing hosts, with plenty of great tips for the city and the surroundings. We had no regrets following any of their suggestions, be they sightseeing, gastronomic, or shopping.
We have already recommended the place to our friends and we strongly recommend it to anyone visiting Bordeaux.
