Beautiful apartment in Bordeaux right in the city center.

Some of the communication difficulties was on my end as well. We were warm at times, but the air conditioner was so noisy we could not use it, especially at night. I guess that is why there were fans in each bedroom. Advertising as air conditioned is a stretch.

The apartment was very nice and well located. The communication with the owner was very poor. Questions went unanswered and communication was in French which I do not speak and repeatedly asked for translation. Obtaining the key was difficult to say the least....lock about 5 inches from the sidewalk and so difficult to see. No soap, no toiletries, one extra role of toilet tissue so we had to buy these amenities. Only one bed was made up with sheets. I expected two beds prepared for two people. It was evident that the floor had not been cleaned as going barefoot resulted in black feet. I neglected to take out the garbage as I did not see that on the list I had until it was too late. It would be helpful if the rules were contained in the black folder in the chest. It would also be advisable to state that there was no elevator and where to put the garbage.

It is nice to have the owner’s parking card but difficult to drive and park near the apartment and deal with lock box. That said— lovely and charming place, comfortable beds, bathrooms and salon. Excellent location! Wonderful responsive owner—communication was easy and helpful. great for short trips out of city, like Arcachon/Dune du Pilat.

Managing the process to park the car on a sidewalk and carry bags down the pedestrian street was not a good fit for seniors. The bath with a shower was a very odd design.

We stayed in this apartment for 32 days and were shocked by its condition. There were events in town, which made it hard to find another place to move to. The only option would be to stay in several different places during the period and we did not want the burden of having to move multiple times. On second thought, we should have!The place was dirty, dusty, and clearly neglected. We cleaned what we could upon arrival, but it was impossible to make it feel minimally clean. The kitchen had grime and oil on high walls and surfaces we couldn’t reach. Shelves and beds were dusty; the sheets were stained—some with holes—and the entire space felt unhygienic and uncared for.The bathrooms were especially bad and completely misrepresented in the listing. One was described as a traditional bath, but it was just a very old, unusable tub with no shower. The so-called modern bathroom was barely functional—literally a hole in the wall, with an opening of about 30 cm to access the shower. The toilet was crammed into a tiny corner, right against the sink, making it physically uncomfortable to use. On top of that, the floor was broken and the toilet seat was loose.To make matters worse, the listing photos were highly misleading. Most were taken from extremely close angles that concealed the flaws—particularly in the bathrooms, where the cramped, impractical layout was carefully hidden. What we saw in person was nothing like what had been advertised.The front door didn’t lock properly

My brother and I are in our 60’s and drove to this property. The apartment is on a pedestrian street, so we had to illegally stop at the end of the street while I ran to the lockbox to get the keys and a parking card. We then drove a few blocks to the parking garage where we opted to grab a few things rather than haul our suitcases down a very busy road. Once inside, what we thought was an elevator was the garbage closet, so we walked up two flights of stairs. We were very tired once inside but needed to eat so found a restaurant nearby. There are many. This would be a great location if you don’t drive into the city. The accommodations were nice. Any glass had to be taken a block away to dispose of near City Hall. Leaving was difficult as well because we had to get the car out before leaving the parking pass in the lockbox. Not a right fit for drivers but would work well otherwise.

Large comfortable and charming apartment with well appointed kitchen and two comfortable bedrooms with large beds and excellent storage. 1 small shower and 1 very large bath tub. Host were excellent, friendly and helpful. Thanks to Arthur for his help.

I thoroughly enjoyed my stay in this beautiful apartment. It has the charm and design of a glorious old space with the amenities of a truly modern kitchen and bathroom. The space is well appointed with paintings and sculpture as if it is an extension of the Beaux Arts Museum across the street. You can walk anywhere in Bordeaux from here, or take a nearby tram if you wish.

Spacious Appartement in the City Center of Bordeaux. You' ll find everything you need in kitchen and bathroom. Nice decorated with very high ceilings. You also get a Card for a Parking Garage only five minutes away. We loved our stay in this Appartement and Bordeaux.

Very well located property and interesting building. Check in process requires access to internet and when communicated with owner prior to arrival, I was told everything would be okay. I had a difficult time getting in and when I finally communicated with property owner, was told to follow the process. While the property was generally clean, had to wash all dishes before using them as last client was not very good at doing so. Bathrooms were not very good - too small and disfunctional, had broken and loose tile, bad shower heads. One bed was comfortable but the other was not. Appartment front door was very difficult to open and close. Also was charged for additional person as we were 2 in a 2 bedroom appartment. Highly unlikely a single person would rent a two-bedroom - cost should be stated up front. All in all, nice location but needs some TLC. I will probably not use VRBO again and will definitely not rent this property again.

Excellent location close to cathedral. Bathrooms are small, an obese person cannot get into the shower. Sitting room is huge. Looks better in photos.
