Spectacular View in Historic Center - sleeps 2-4, elevator, Wifi

The apartment is a comfortable two bedroom and looks exactly as shown on the website. One of the things we like about VRBO rentals is the feeling like you’re in a real neighborhood. This apartment certainly is that. The main room is large, with lots of light and is convenient for cooking, dining in and relaxing. We were two couples in our mid ‘60s. We alternated dining out and cooking in. There are many small groceries within 5 minutes and a supermarket about 10 minutes walk. A plus was that a food caddie was provided. The patio is delightful – we used it extensively to sitting out with wine or coffee and watch the city go by below. Old city Bordeaux is across the street – fun to explore and find impromptu cafes/bistros. No dishwasher. No air conditioning although we weren’t uncomfortable even in mid July having the cross ventilation on the top floor. Good access to the old part of Bordeaux. Recommended.

After spending 3 weeks in the countryside I wasn't quite prepared for coming across the bridge into Bordeaux Centre. But after an evening's rest in this wonderful apartment in a beautiful old building I was prepared to explore Bordeaux. Cross over Victor Hugo Blvd and in 5 minutes you are in the beautiful old center. Walk in the other direction and you are in a vibrant neighborhood with a wonderful Sat. open market surrounded by cafes and with street performers. Yes the apartment has everything you need especially if you want to cook some meals. Best cookware and sharp knifes we have ever found. Charlotte who welcomed us was extremely patient with my travel grumpiness. Best restaurants Le Petit Commerce for lunch and Karl's for breakfast. Fromagerie Deruelle about 5-10 mins. has fresh pasta, meats, cheeses, cheesecake to take home. Walk along the river at night. Gorgeous. Walk on the reflecting pool. Everyone is extremely friendly.

Spent a week here and loved it. Fourth floor, but we never used stairs as small elevator available. Two bedrooms but we only needed the one. Well stocked (soap, laundry detergent, kitchen stuff), spacious and a great terrace with a great view. Updated plumbing and good cross-ventilation. Absolutely great location - it didn't look like it when we first arrived, but it really is a great location, near everything and safe. Garage is just around the corner and parking was 50 euros for the week. Minutes walks from museums, opera house, St. Katherine St, etc. Loads of good restaurants within 15 minutes walk. Carrefour grocery down the street. Only small suggestions for improvement are a coffee-maker (we used the French-press, but it's more of a production) and we did battle mosquitoes. Charlotte said they are getting screens installed, which must have been a project because no one around seems to have them but it's a great idea. Very quiet location - no noise ever while we were there. Nicely decorated. Although no clothes dryer, the spin on the washer worked great and stuff dried quickly on the rack. If we come back to Bordeaux we would stay there again, no question. Very well managed and responsive.

A small group of us were traveling to France and Spain and spent three days at the Bordeaux Terrace. It was a fantastic home base for us as we toured the city close to public transportation and shops and dining. We enjoyed getting to know the city and then heading back to the lovely accommodations. Suzanne and Charlotte were wonderful hosts and I would highly recommend this property!

We enjoyed our stay at the Bordeaux Terrace which is centrally located with easy accessibility to restaurants and shopping by walking. The parking was not a problem for us. The roof top terrace was very nice for relaxing with a glass of wine and nibbling on cheese after a day of seeing the sights. We also took the open top bus through town which is worth while for resting your feet. All the rooms were roomy, comfortable and clean. The bathroom was nice and it worked very well to have a separate toilet room. Charlotte was very informative and helpful. She met our needs. We would recommend this apartment. The elevator was nice, too, for transporting our luggage.
