I can't say enough about how great Tamara and her apartment are. We stayed for 5 weeks and it felt like home. The location is great - just outside the Casco Viejo, so you get the advantages of everything the Casco has to offer but the quiet of being just beyond it. It's a couple blocks from the Mercado de la Ribera - the big central market - which made buying fresh seafood, veggies, meats, etc. super convenient. It's just blocks from the tranvía that connects to the rest of the city. Lots of restaurants, bars, pintxos, etc. nearby. The apartment is very comfortable - great bed, kitchen with everything we needed for a long stay, living room and dining area. The best part - Tamara and Oskar are, without a doubt, super hosts. They went out of their way to make us comfortable, to give us lots of great recommendations about where to eat, places to visit - both in Bilbao and beyond - and were completely accessible the entire time we were there. Communication was seamless. They made the difference between an OK stay and a great stay. When we come back to Bilbao we will definitely stay in their AirBnB again.
