We only stayed overnight on our way through, so we didn't really use the house as a long-term stay. It suited our needs perfectly, though; the bed in the mezzanine helps to give a bit more space than you would otherwise have in a studio apartment. The sofa bed below was apparently comfortable enough, too. We didn't use the cooking or washing facilities, but the shower and toilet were clean and worked. Stephane was very friendly and accommodating; we didn't know any French and he didn't know English, but we got by on our Spanish. Saint-Jean-de-Luz is a lovely town, too, so I'd recommend this for someone who was looking to stay in the area.
