Futuristic Bordeaux Hotel Functions As If Hungover

When in Bordeaux, though some might enjoy more classical or idyllically French things, or wine, some might go avant-garde. But the New York Times wouldn't.
The marginally positive review in "Check-in, Check-out," of the sleek and new Seeko'o Hotel uses most of its word count to list technical, um, difficulties, that were not addressed during the course of the reviewer's stay. Seth Sherwood writes:
My room, No. 101, a “junior suite” was really just a semispacious hotel room (for 180 euros). The “business center,” similarly, was a lone Internet-linked computer in the lobby. Moreover, the room smelled of cigarettes and looked out on a row of decrepit buildings.
