Wow- what a great location! We could walk to everything that we wanted to see, and the area has a ton of restaurants and shops. We loved everything about the apartment- it looks just like the pictures. Read through the suggestion books that Stephane has, as we realized later on that we missed out on a discount code! There were many awesome recommendations by Stephane as well as past guests. As many others have mentioned, it does get very loud at night; something about the square seems to amplify the voices on the street. Because it was very hot while we were there, we slept with the doors open, so it was particularly noticeable. Overall, it didn't bother us (we're city people), but I do think it would be an issue for anyone sensitive to noise. Thank you, Stephane, for a great introduction to Bordeaux!
