Very good
All reviews shown are from real guest experiences. Only travellers who have booked a stay with us can submit a review. We verify reviews according to our guidelines and publish all reviews, positive or negative.
We couldn't have asked for more or for better value. Reception was very friendly, room was brightly lit and exceptionally clean, shower was steamy with great water pressure, beds were comfortable. And the hotel was centered in Bilbao's Old Towne with plenty to do. A perfect combination!

We thought this was a very well located place and the check-in was very easy. The shower is super tiny, but we managed.
The hotel is on the 3rd floor without an elevator and the rooms do not have air conditioning.
Be sure before booking, because in their listing they don't clarify that.
Very small room and even smaller bathroom which was not shown in any pictures. Smallest sink ever seen or used. No room for luggage except on floor. We could hear everything even whispering in other rooms. Also pipes sounded like waterfall just outside window when anyone in building flushed. Good price and good location and clean rooms just keep in mind the above.

its okay place for a short weekend stay. the place is really small, and restroom super tiny. the place only have stairs inside the building with light sensor that doesnt work well. its convenient to restaurant, stores and dessert places, but night time can be noisy. the streets gets very dirty, smelly and nasty at night.
great location, especially if you're not driving. unfortunately, we drove so had to park like 8 blocks away. It's the nature of staying right in the heart of downtown (casco viejo). staff was very friendly and suggested places to go and visit.
It's more of a hostel than a hotel, you have to walk up 3 stories, no elevator. there's also no AC in the rooms. it was breezy so we opened the windows. a few weeks later it might've been an issue tho. be mindful.
would stay there again.
The hotel had a convenient location, but several issues marred the stay. The bathroom was very small, and using the mini shower caused water to spill everywhere. Despite searching for accommodations with air conditioning, the room only had a small, ineffective fan. Additionally, opening the balcony door invited a swarm of large mosquitoes into the room.
The hotel is in a really great location and is surrounded by plenty of places to eat and drink, as well as being only a few minutes walk from local bus, tram and metro services.
I stayed by myself in one of the smaller rooms. The room was very clean and modern and ideal for a few nights stay.
My room faced onto an inner courtyard so I could not hear any of the hustle and bustle of the streets outside however the property is quite small with all rooms in close proximity on the same floor so you do hear the comings and goings of all other guests - the floors are all hard and non carpeted so footsteps and cases being pulled can be quite loud as people enter and leave in the mornings and evenings respectively.
The bathroom was great, nice powerful shower inside a big clean cubicle with both a waterfall head and a detachable, directional head. Good temperature control.
The room had a decent fan/Aircon solution operated by remote control.
The staff I encountered were all very friendly, helpful and chatty!
Good hotel in the old town. Basic but comfortable and clean.
Ideal for a base to visit from.
Close to shopping streets full of pinxto bars and close to metro to get around!

The good things were the beds were really comfortable and the staff couldn't be more helpful with my many queries.
What wasnt so good was the size of the room- its was TINY even tho i booked a double for myself, and it was noisy- both from the street and other residents.
I wouldnt stay again - it just wasnt memorable or that comfortable- no place for luggage but the floor, one little hard chair, and having someone always sitting at a desk right outside your door makes it difficult to relax.
Im sure there are better options in Bilbao at this price range

Hotel was in perfect location and very clean and gracious staff. Room was tiny, and only lighting was overhead ceiling light. Really should have bedside reading lights.
