A truly beautifully decorated apartment that's a pleasure to spend time in!
I chose this neighborhood because I had appointments in the area; if I was only in Bordeaux for tourism I might have chosen to stay on the other side of the bridge, but honestly I didn't even bother to take the convenient tram because it's only a brief, scenic walk over the river to the main historic area of the city.
The apartment shares an entrance with the host's home, but is a fully-independent apartment with plenty of privacy. The welcome apertif in the fridge was a nice touch, too. A lovely stay in Bordeaux!
