The “ideal” in the name of Raphaelle’s place is an accurate description. The apartment is located in the heart of the historic Bordeaux and has lots of history inside. Many nice and practical touches such as lamps and clocks everywhere. Many books about Bordeaux (mostly in French) and other publications about the city and the area.
A good view of Place Gambetta and a chance to exercise climbing the stairs to the apartment. High ceilings, really large bathroom, a tiny but well equipped kitchen, and the layout of the apartment that allows privacy for each of the two people staying there.
