Maria's place is just as described. It's a cute little one-bedroom one-bathroom half-basement apartment under the house the host family lives in. It's about a 7-minute walk from the local bus station, which is the only (and pretty decent) public transit on the island. While we didn't have a car, it might be good to note that there was ample street parking, which is not a given in one of the most densely populated countries in the world! The place is pretty no-frills, but had everything we needed. Given the price, it is quite the bargain.
