Excellent location, immediately adjacent to Stalingrad square and only a 10-15 minute walk to the historic centre of Bordeaux, and the tram also stops right outside of your door. However, we had some issues checking in (door code was not provided in the check in instructions!) and the host didn’t reply immediately. This wouldn’t normally be a big problem but if you’re running multiple rentals you would think that communication could be reliable. The room itself is a good size and has everything you need, however the lower bed was a bit uncomfortable and sagging in the middle. Also, there was a strange smell in the entryway that was coming in to the room- like a mixture of sewer and cigarettes. It’s a ground level unit (despite the photo looking like an upper floor view), at the front of the building and the windows open up on to the square. In summer this might be a problem For noise and smokers because you need to have the windows open to keep cool, but in the autumn weather it was possible to have them closed and it was very quiet even in the busy morning.
Finally, the wifi is completely unusable. It’s very obvious that they are just making guests use a wifi hotspot in another unit. There’s no wifi in the unit itself and the signal is unusable. Wouldn’t be an issue but at this price and with advertised wifi, I would say it’s false to say it has wifi.
