Why isn’t the school offering student housing options this year?

The negotiated rate for 2024 is currently 100 euros a night for a standard single room, breakfast and tourist tax included. The hotel has mentioned that there may be change in tarifs announced in January.
What do you recommend for local transportation?
Cycling is by far the easiest option for local transportation in Anglet. No more than 20 minutes from school to Bayonne, Biarritz, and the beaches in Anglet - and one of the best cycling routes in Europe (the vélodyssée) along the coast. One hitch - you have to reserve early given the number of tourists in the region during July.

The Basque Coast has an excellent bus system that will take you from Bayonne to Saint Jean de Luz to Hendaye for a couple of euros. You can purchase group tickets that will allow up to five people to travel together.
