I stayed at Maria's place for 2 nights, booking at short notice (due to last-minute travel plan changes). Communication pre-booking was very quick & efficient, and when I arrived Maria was friendly, welcoming and well-organised. She has obviously thought about her guests' needs (I was v pleased there was a hairdryer) and left things like a town maps in the room. Maria was also kind enough to let me store my suitcase as I was on a very late flight out of Biarritz - which is a much appreciated thoughtful gesture.

The location of Maria's place is great - on the Gros side of the river but very close to the Kursaal, Zurriola beach and a short walk to the old town (Parte Viejo) and main shopping area (Centro). The room is as described/in the picture, spotlessly clean and had a very comfortable bed with lovely bed linen :) The ensuite bathroom is quite spacious and has great water pressure & plenty of warm water. The room is interior facing so gets no noise from traffic, however light sleepers should note you can clearly here the early-rising neighbours above and the shower room next door so maybe take a pair of earplugs if you are easily woken up.

In summary it's not the kind of AirBnB where you hang out with your host, but more like staying in a nice B&B/pensione. I'd happily stay again :)
