The host Melanie goes beyond to accommodate each guests needs individually. She took us to a grocery store and recommended local cheese/pate specialties. We were starting our Camino and she drove us to the pilgrims office and starting point. Took pictures the morning we left and told us stories about the area. She is very knowledgeable. Her place is a little outside the town, but quieter and the views are incredible and she provides transportation. She also picked up a guest from Biarritz for a fee. Great host to start the Camino. We made a new friend. We also met another pilgrim who stayed in the same place and we walked together until Pamplona. Definitely recommend her place to our friends and anyone visiting Saint Jean-Pied-de-Port.
