The apartment is perfectly located to travel easily into the centre of Bordeaux ( or even walk, on cooler days), and a great view from the 8th floor balcony towards the city centre and river. There are many restaurants nearby, and a good sized supermarket 2 minutes walk away. For drivers, there is a secure underground car park, and for non drivers, the tram stop is very close, at the Cite de Vin. The area feels very safe, the main hazard being pizza delivery bicycles! Dominique was great, meeting us on arrival and welcoming us to the wonderful city of Bordeaux.
