Anyone staying in Air BnB's in Bordeaux?

It was far across the sea,
When the devil got a hold of me,
He wouldn't set me free,
So he kept me soul for ransom.

Might go for 1 night maybe 2.

Bordeaux looks class and this place seems a bit too quiet.

Some great deals on there HB especially if you arent looking for a big apartment.There are 5 of us so we were a bit limited with available places.

I could agree with you but then we'd both be wrong.

Exactly,I am very happy with the place we booked.

I had a look on AirbnB and there is still decent value to be got .

Long term reader, first time poster.

A group of us are staying in paris from 12th to 16th - heading to bordeaux via train on the thursday. wondering will the craic and irish fans be making their way to bordeaux earlier than the thursday? would rather head earlier if thought there was more drinking to be done down there. thanks

Thursday would be grand, lot of people on here seem to be stopping off in various places such as la Rochelle, arcachon, etc before going to bordeaux. not heading to Bordeaux myself till the Friday.
