Montse’s place has a great location in Bilbao, and perfect for public transport access. It’s also in a very urban area with plenty of shops and supermarkets nearby.
The room was spic and span, the bathroom was shared so the sink occasionally had some debris(??) stuck to it, but was largely clean. It would help if the bathroom doors lock were fixed.
Montse has two adorable cats (one social and one shy) - I really enjoyed spending time with them - and a very cute little girl. She’s a great host and goes out of her way to explain stuff to you, and make suggestions for places to see.
The only downside with the house is that the walls are really thin and everyone can hear everyone else talking on the phone (including me), singing, etc. Orange cellular reception in the house is also a bit weak.
