If you come with your family to Bordeaux and you want to stay near in an decent place, try this place. The good is that there is free parking, the room is comfortable and comes with a small kitchenette with some utensils, and it is very quiet at night; the not so good is that the A.C. didn't work and the shower doesn't have a curtain.
If you want to go to downtown Bordeaux you can take public transportation (it costs $4.70 for the day pass) or you can rent a city bike for $1.70 for 24 hours (they are located by the tram stop)
