I loved the apartment and the location. it was 15 minutes walking from the train station and then from the train you could easily go, within a 1/2 hour, to Biarritz or Saint Jean de Luz. It truly had a neighborhood feel; the owner of the boulangerie and the tabac/bar were very friendly. As a solo women traveller i didnt go out after sunset because the neighborhood was very quiet and the entrance and the stairway to the 2nd floor apartment were dark and very quiet. With another person it would have been fine.
