We were there in a heatwave but the air conditioning kept us cool and comfortable. A selection of teas were provided in the room. Good restaurants nearby. ##### Kathleen Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 17 Sept 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service The staff was amazing & went out of their way. The location is perfect. The room was very small & beds not so comfortable. Could use updating. There was no electrical outlet on my side of the bed so I had to sleep with my head at the foot of the bed to plug in my CPAP machine. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Aug 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Denise 15 Jul 2024 Liked: Property conditions & facilities I loved the hotel and location. The room was nice and clean. I was not very happy with the staff when it came to helping with parking information. We arrived at about 9pm after driving for about 10 hours and the gentleman at the reception said that the parking was completely full. I asked him where we could park and he did not know. Finally, we were lucky enough to find parking on the street which was free until 9am. He stated that parking was free from 9-10am. After that we needed to put money in the meter. Next morning a female was in the reception area and I asked her if there was any parking available since many people leave early, she also said no. I asked her about parking and she said she did not know you would think that the hotel would know where to refer their clients if they do not have parking. Finally, we found parking on our own, very inexpensive and around the corner from the hotel. The parking that we had used the previous night not only they charged for the 9-10am parking but they were asking for 35 euros for 2.5 hours. Ridiculous! ##### Denise Stayed 1 night in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sikiu 22 Oct 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Good location friendly staff For One time in our way to San Sebastián was a really good Choice, it was really a good decisión tu stayed there ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/df8bbdda-5468-4ff9-bd00-5fc5d0e51b08-1761122538744.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/3b965842-280a-4e28-8d4a-7ba065c3d2bb-1761122538273.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Sikiu Stayed 1 night in Oct 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Tatiana 2 Oct 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Perfect ##### Tatiana Stayed 1 night in Sep 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Eduardo 21 Jun 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Great little boutique hotel.
