빌바오 hot places와는 조금 떨어져있지만 대중교통 이용 (Metro, 트램) 하기는 매우 편리함. 호텔 내부는 간결하게 그리고 편리하게 잘 구비되어 있음. 주차에 대한 보다 자세한 사전 설명이 필요함. 터미널 빌딩안에 있는 호텔이라서 자동차로 호텔 접근하려면 처음에 당황스러움. 호텔 보유 주차장이 아니라 터미널 빌딩 자체 지하 유료주차장을 이용하는 것임.

We booked this hotel because it looked like it had a pool but were very disappointed to find the pool was part of the spa and was restricted to adults. The kids were very disappointed. The rooms are noisy. It is a 15min ride into San Sebastian on a bus and there was only one restaurant nearby. We were very disappointed with our stay.
