Christine was a great host! She was so nice to be available when our train came in so we did not have to wait around to check in. She was gracious when we woke up a little late for our arranged meeting time, as she was kind enough to give us a ride to the airport to pick up our rental car! It felt more like we were staying with family vs someone we had never met before. She brought us breakfast and came to tidy up the place up in the afternoons even. She was responsive via e-mail, since my French is not perfect yet - that was an easy way to communicate with her and she would get right back to me. Her location in Bordeaux is great, as we rode bikes all over town from her place. I would recommend this as a great way to see Bordeaux also. She showed us on the map our location and what to see in Bordeaux. The apartment was small but clean, good wifi and with a very comfortable bed. She has a parking lot near the place also. With Christine as your host this is the place to stay in Bordeaux. Merci Madame Christine!
