Audrey’s place is in keeping with the early spirit of Airbnb, when it was used by people to make a little extra income and/or meet interesting travellers. Her place is not screwing up the social fabric of Bordeaux like so many ‘corporate’ members of this service. That is to say Audrey’s place is an actual home and she has an actual job that does not include managing dozens of Airbnb locations. Her place is not a hotel. It is super comfortable, and charming, and well located, but it’s not perfect. You should book her place to meet a real citizen of Bordeaux and be in a central neighborhood and walking distance from the train station. You will be hard pressed to find a better value Airbnb in a major French city. It was lovely.
