The owner, Benjamin, was very gracious and helpful. He arranged our train tickets from Bordeaux back to Paris and arranged for taxi service as well which made our last day much less stressful. Breakfast was good; the best bread and croissant I had in France. The room was very clean, the products to wash with were high quality and the place was quiet. It is modern and chic and "real", as we say in the US. The location was great as well: it's in the Saint Seurin neighborhood which is central to everywhere and especially to the tram line which was cheap, fast and efficient (if crowded, because it works!) The closest restaurants including Ze and The Grand Cafe were reasonable and wonderful. There is a small market a couple hundred yards away as well as a laundromat. I recommend to people with any mobility issues to request one of two rooms on the first floor. While the rooms may be small, what room isn't in France that's under $500 Euro a night? I went to Amsterdam years ago (my first Europe trip) and remember calling the front desk whining" Isn't there a bigger room?" It still makes me laugh...
The support staff was friendly, all spoke English and I can't say how gracious they were to us again. I highly recommend this hotel. We loved Bordeaux and will definitely go back if we can. Thank you Benjamin and staff for a wonderful stay and a feeling of comfort and caring.
