If you are looking for nice place to stay in Bordeaux, France, this is the place to stay. Not only is the room well maintained and cute, the host is so warm, friendly and extremely helpful. For example, we took the bus to Bordeaux, and without us asking, the host gave us directions on how to use the public transportation from our drop off location to the apartment.
Upon arriving she also had plenty of maps and brochures on tours and sites to see. Also the apartment has nice touches like a coffee maker, hot water boiler, and breakfast snacks! It’s in a lovely location, just a mile down the street from the Wine Museum- the Cité du Vin! the address for the Wine Museum is 134 Quai de Bacalan)!

Our Flixbus drop off location was Bordeaux Saint-Jean, Parking Descas, Quai de Paludate, 33800 Bordeaux, which was only a .322 kilometer walk from (or .2 miles) from the main Bordeaux-Saint Jean train station shop.
The public transportation in Bordeaux is called TBM-Transports Bordeaux Métropole. When we got on our first bus, the bus driver sold us a TBM card with two trips loaded, for €3. We used one card for the two of us the entire time we were in Bordeaux. Both the bus driver and the host recommended we only use/need one TBM card for the two of us and just continue reloading it at each station as much as needed. You can reload at most tram or bus stations. Just scan the card once for each person getting on. The TBM network also has a bike share program, that we used when we were site seeing/going from site to site. The bike share program offers 24hours, 7 days and monthly pricing options. Here is 24hours pricing €1.70 | 30 minutes free of charge + €2/hour or part hour.
Enjoy, Tay!
