Nice but not over a weekend

We loved the apt. Close to everything and easy to find. Our only critisism would be it is quite noisy. We were there over a weekend and the Neighbours were coming home at 2, 3 and 5am. The lights come on in the courtyard hence into our bedroom and the talking travels greatly.

Great location but not luxurious

We stayed here for three nights. I have stayed in many apartments before all over the world and I was expecting at least the bed to be comfortable and to find a sufficient amount of toiletries. I had to wash my hands with shampoo because they only give you one soap for two sinks! The bed is a simple mattress with two small pillows. There was a sewer smell coming from the bathroom, and the bed is very close to the bathroom and there's no door just a curtain. The location is great due to the proximity to Saint James St. where you can find many shops and cafes. Communication was good and I never saw anyone, and we were able to check in and out by ourselves. Unfortunately,I feel that I paid too much for this place.

Superb location

Big apartment two floors up ( no elevator) in cobblestoned central historical area of Bordeaux. Renovated with all modern kitchen, bathroom. Furniture could be more comfy and the bathroom needs a fan (moldy smell) but that’s common in very old buildings. Management very responsive. Super for 2 people.

Quiet, spacious apartment on a charming street

The photos absolutely capture how lovely this apartment is: a gorgeous old building updated with all the modern conveniences yet preserves its period architectural details. The location is a quiet residential cobblestoned street, with cafes, the river, and historical monuments just a short walk away.

Fantastic place to stay in Bordeaux!

Fantastic location, incredibly quiet most of the time, yet close to every kind of restaurant, shopping, and the river promenade. Great appliances and well stocked for cooking fresh foods from the Marches de Capucins. Good help from the property managers, as needed. I'd stay for a month if I could!

A fabulous apartment in a fabulous location!

This apartment is located very close to transportation in an area that is also fun to walk through. We loved the modern amenities in a 17th century setting. Don’t bring a car to Bordeaux since it’s so easy to get around in and parking is a nightmare. Loved the high ceilings, hardwood floors and modern kitchen. Washer & dryer were great assets. The management was very responsive too. We’d stay here again any time!

Awesome property!

Host and their team (Eneka) were very welcoming - even had a bottle of wine for us when we arrived. This was in a great location. Super close to transportation. The apartment is in a lovely building - very spacious. Great bathroom with a huge shower. Thanks for an awesome stay.

We love everything about this apartment. It is well-located, clean, and has excellent appliances. The river rocks on the shower floor are a wonder for tired feet. The staff is terrific and responsive. We had stayed here in 2013 and felt as if we were coming home on our return visit.

Spacious apartment in a good location.

We had excellent communication with our hosts before and during our rental. Carmen met us at the apartment and did a thorough orientation and the house manual was very helpful, especially for the appliances that are quite different from ours in North America. The host was very responsive to a couple of issues that we raised during our stay (cleanliness in a couple of places and supplies that were missing) and I am sure that these will be rectified. The apartment is easy to find and close to the tram lines, but also within easy walking distance of all of the sites in the historic centre of Bordeaux. It is just outside the main tourist area and is quite quiet. There are many good restaurants a short walk away and Carmen pointed us toward local markets where we could buy great produce and food for cooking at home. The apartment is very large and comfortable. The kitchen is very modern and well equipped. The shower is great! Bordeaux is a wonderful city and we would love to visit again!
