After four months abroad in nine different apartments in nine different cities, this absolutely captivating apartment in Bordeaux wins hands down for comfort, charm, location, and design. There is an abundance of storage space allowing one to completely unpack and live as you would at home. The kitchen is so well-stocked, you could easily entertain and cook any kind of meal you desire if you so wish (but the restaurants all around this location provide such wonderful food, why would you want to cook at home?). The modern bathroom is large and well-appointed.

The location of this unit on a quiet street in a quiet part of the building provides for a wonderful night's sleep and mornings and evenings of relaxation after a busy day exploring Bordeaux. You can awaken to soft morning light coming through the windows. The beautiful salon view of the moss and fern-covered wall across the moat is calm and serene. Stepping out the building's door and walking a few meters, you will find yourself in the hustle-bustle of plazas and busy streets filled with unique as well as well-known stores and shops and galleries.

Corinne and Lionel were perfect hosts and provided thorough information regarding the neighborhood and the city. Communication throughout the rental process was always a delight.

Thank you, Corinne and Lionel, and for a delightful stay.
