Superbe appartement avec terrasse.

Excelente estancia de cuatro adultos y dos niños, muy buena ubicación y la atención de la propietaria exquisita. Tuvimos un pequeño problema que nos resolvió con rapidez. Todo estaba perfecto, hasta el detalle del obsequio de una botella de vino. Repetiremos.

Ariele was at the property to meet us and welcome us to her apartment and city, gave us a tour of the apartment assured us she was only a text away if we needed more information. Lovely bottle of red wine just asking to be drunk ! along with juice, water and milk in the fridge.

The apartment is comfortable, very clean, soft white towels, smooth bed linen , comfy beds - we slept like logs - and very elegant. Very French !

Thank you Ariele we had a super time. We may well return one day.

The property was lovely and the location fantastic. Walking distance to loads of restaurants and shops. A well equipped kitchen made breakfasts and indoor picnics very easy. A slight warning: this is not really a 2 bedroom ensuite property. Each of the bedrooms has its own shower and sink, but not its own toilet. There is one communal toilet in the living area but you have to leave your bedroom to use it.

Driving into the parking area near the property was a bit dicey and not for the faint of heart — lots of pedestrians, motorcycles, strollers etc coming at you from all directions on narrow streets. We compared it to a video game and hoped we could avoid all the obstacles!

Bordeaux is an extremely crowded, young person 20’s and 30’s type of place. We used it as a base to explore the area which we would not do again as it was too much of a hassle coming and going into the city.

But we would rate the property very highly, it was nicely decorated and the linens and beds were comfortable.

My husband and I, together with another couple of friends, stayed in Ariele's apartment for one week. During this time we enjoyed its location, its pleasant furnishings (albeit somewhat cluttered in the bedrooms) and its little terrace garden. We were disappointed by the neglected state of repair of the building; the entrance hall was dark, dusty and unwelcoming. Also some facilities in the apartment were not up to standard: a large proportion of the bulbs were not working, there were no towel rails in the second bathroom, and the kitchen utensils were limited; for example there only a few pots available and they had no lids.

Our group of 4 adults wanted a nice place to stay in central Bordeaux, and Ariele’s apartment certainly fits the bill. It’s in the old city area, and easily within walking distance to the river foreshore, business area, hundreds of eateries, the tourism centre, and parks. The apartment is on the first floor, so expect some stairs. The kitchen has all the requirements for food preparation, as well as the very handy washing machine, and the large lounge / dining area is very welcoming for all guests. Each bedroom has a small shower / vanity area, but there is only a single share toilet. The whole apartment is well maintained and very clean, as has a very ‘homely’ feeling. We strongly recommend this apartment if you plan to stay in Bordeaux.
