    That was a last minute booking, since our original booking at another place got canceled. It was easy and uncomplicated to book and get in on the same day. Great host and great apartment and location.

    We enjoyed our stay at L’Escale d’Aquitaine. The apartment is in a quiet location even though it’s steps away from Rue Sainte-Catherine. It’s a lovely apartment and we were very comfortable.

    The host sent thorough arrival/entry instructions. The area felt very safe. I was a solo female traveller first night and felt safe. The apt is very near everything. The owner has added quality decor choices. It is a gem.
