The hotel was in the heart of Old Town. The room was modern but small. We were hardly there so no issue. Very friendly staff. If you're a walker its perfect. Taxis are close by, 5 min. Walk. All in all a lovely stay.

Great location, lots of eateries around, 2 minutes walk to the metro and walkable to most attractions in central Bilbao. Very clean and spacious room. However, no kettle or any tea/coffee facility in the room which was a bit disappointing.

Great stay; perfect for the solo traveller

Good bed, amazing shower, balcony overlooking the road and peace of mind for the duration of my stay --- could not ask for more. Everything in the city is in reasonable walking distance. Likely will return in a few days before heading back home.

A great location, walking distance to everywhere. Building is undergoing renovation so stairwell is dark and dingy, but don’t let this put you off…… rooms are fabulous, new and clean. Bathroom sparklingly clean, lots of hot water. Beds comfortable. Room very very quiet, no outside noise at all although street was bustling - very well insulated. Staff lovely and welcoming with good communication. A few things missing from room but I suspect these may come when renovation is complete. ie safe was locked (could have asked for it to be opened but it wasn’t a problem), no drinking glasses, a mini fridge for our water would be good and tea & coffee making would be really useful. Would definitely stay here again and would definately recommend due to location and comfort of room.

The staff were extremely friendly and helpful, carrying my big suitcase up the steep stairs for me (I didn’t ask them to!). The agreed to us leaving luggage before and after our check in. The room was comfortable with good facilities and a great location. We were at the back of the hostel so despite building works and bars downstairs (at the front of the hostel) we couldn’t hear any of the noise. We’d stay again!

The bed was comfortable, the room practical and the check-in efficient. I like the fact that there is codes on doors (no key to carry). The hotel location is very central. I spend a night there for 66€ so I definitely recommend this place for a short stay in Bilbao!

Great location for old town.

I booked this place due to the location and it didn’t disappoint! Rooms are basic, but very clean. My only slight annoyance was there was only one working plug socket in the room. Service was great. The guy behind the reception desk was super helpful, though had limited English. Noise was a bit of an issue in the night - I think that as there’s no soft furnishings anywhere sound just echoes throughout all rooms, slightly annoying but not a huge problem. If you’re looking for an affordable guesthouse and basing on an old town location I’d thoroughly recommend!

A real little gem behind an inconspicuous door of the street, an old wooden staircase like going back in time. Helpful friendly staff. Having a bit is Spanish was helpful when booking in. Rooms were basic but spotlessly clean. Great area in the old part of town.

A very nice older hotel in the old city center

It is a nice older hotel in the old part of the city where only pedestrians are allowed. My room and bathroom were both large, the breakfast was a typical Spanish breakfast: coffee, fresh orange juice, a croissant and tostada with tomatoes and olive oil. There are two items to be aware of. First, there is no elevator and it is 26 stairs up to the lobby and 20 stairs up to each additional floor. Second, they do NOT have air conditioning, just a small fan in the room - I slept with the window open and fan at the foot of the bed with no sheet on, and it was still warm (they are having a heat wave in Europe). Otherwise, I found the hotel to be very nice and in a great location, less than 10 minute walk from the train station and with many restaurants, cafes and bars nearby. I would definitely stay here again.

Essentially booked because it was cheap and central but was impressed with the cleanliness of the hotel, the niceness of the breakfast and location generally. Had good nights sleep in spite of being right in the centre of the old town. Nice stay and good value for money.

Great location

Great little hotel right in the middle of casco viejo area. Plenty bars and restaurants on the street and nice plazas nearby, but no noise in the room. Staff were very nice and helpful. Breakfast basic but ideal. We would definitely recommend for a weekend in Bilbao.
