Very good

The staff are very helpful and friendly with a good understanding of English. The facility has so many interesting extras with art and museum pieces placed throughput. I also really loved the unique signage. The rooms are clean and modern but no frills similar to a Premier Inn in London. Very reasonable price and walking distance to the beach, cafes and buses.
Olarain is listed as hostel, but what you really get is a regular hotel room. Clean, maybe a tad small, but it was all I needed. It is part of a student resident, but it was absolutely quiet when I stayed there. If you need to stay near Antiguo, then you'll have most places within walking distance. I'd probably stay somewhere downtown or in Gros for visiting San Sebastian, although you'll have several bus lines run frequently to get to the center.
Over priced ,tv limited, body odour on the bedding, no fans or air conditioning. The showers were very small, could hear everything in all rooms above ,on either side and hallway.
Staff were abrupt.
The food in dining room was cheap and enjoyed the one meal I had there.
With almost paper thin walls you can hear virtually everyone and everything, with this in mind we wouldn't choose to stay here again, room was clean and comfortable, a long walk or 13€ taxi to the old town, we would have been better in Hind sight paying more for a central hotel.
The rooms were comfortable and clean. Lots of little restaurants, shops, and the beach easily within walking distance. The only major downfall is the walls quite thin and you can literally hear everything your neighbors are doing.
