Short visit to san sebastian

Hotel is on a hill, just outside town. Nothing in the neighbourhood, so very quiet. Nice ocean view. Busstop in front of thedoor. When arriving got a complete overview of things to do and see in town. Very useful. Rooms basic and clean. Good breakfast. Internet only in public area.

Limpieza regular, había un olor extraño procedente

Había un olor extraño en la habitación procedente del armario. El lugar esta un poco apartado. No es un hotel como pone en la pagina de hoteles.com ni tampoco tiene tres estrellas. Es una pensión con dos estrellas. El precio es excesivamente caro si lo comparas con hoteles y paradores en los que he estado. Otra cosa que no entiendo y no sé de quien es el error es que yo ponga que vamos dos adultos y un niño de 13 años en mi petición en la página y me den un precio de 100 euros y que luego llegue alli y me cobren otros quince euros más por la cama supletoria. Si yo sé el precio final quizás no hubiese cogido ese hotel. En Bilbao, en el NH que estaba fenomenal , me cobraban 122 euros por noche y menuda diferencia.

No era lo que esperaba

El desayuno continental poca variedad y escaso. Los niños aunque tenga 3 añitos se les cobra los 5€ de desayuno como un adulto. También tienen la amabilidad de llamarte el día de entrada para recordarte que si no entras antes de las 16:30 te cobran un recargo, da igual que estés cruzando media España para llegar a SanSebastián con un niño pequeño, con las muchas paradas que se tienen que hacer.

Amazing Stay

Front office staff Sonya and Isatcha were very helpful, friendly, and warm. The hotel is located away from the city center and you would have to take a bus to get there. However, bus #16 stops right in front of the hotel and has stops at the beach, restaurants, and old town where all the pintxos bars are. There are 3 residence dogs which we did not expect. My travel companion is allergic to dogs so whenever we hung out in the lobby to access our wifi, she would walk out of there having difficulty breathing. One other thing was the weak wifi reception from room 12. I highly recommend this hotel for location, hotel amenities, and a great staff.

The place was not a three star hotel as advertised when booking. When you arrive it is actually a 2 star pension on the door and you can tell. The room is very small. The bed was very uncomfortable (could feel the springs). Could hear noise from the other rooms, very thin walls, There is no climate control (A/C). They say no pets on web, but are greeted by employee or owners dog. Saw different dogs during our stay and the place smells of dog. If you are allergic stay away from here. Very far from town, nothing in this area. There is a bus stop in front of the hotel that stops by every half hour. Can take a taxi back from town for about 10.00-15.00 Euros.

Small but what we needed! No complaints. There was a small alcove around the corner from our room that we took advantage of as well, being as we are traveling with our 1-yr old son.

Rustico

Albergo situato fuori città con una bell'affaccio sul mare. L'interno è spartano ma pulito ed accogliente. Le camere sono spaziose. Facilmente raggiungibile con i mezzi pubblici (fermata dell'autobus proprio davanti all'albergo) L'unico problema è dato dalla connessione internet che va e viene in un posto dove la rete telefonica è completamente assente.

Grazie

Sono arrivato e non avevano nota della prenotazione con l'albergo pieno. Dicono di non conoscere Venere e di non aver avuto prenotazioni. Ma dato l'inconveniente si sono prodigati e in overbooking sono riusciti a darmi una camera matrimoniale . Albergo lontano dal centro senza aria condizionata ma veramente ho rovato disponibilità. da verificare se l'errore è stato di venere come dicono loro.

Good stay- kind people - beautiful View-

It was good. we had a car so it was easy to go up the hill but if you don't have a car you will have to use the bus because it's in the hills and it will be quite a walk up to hotel. Luckily, bus station is right next to hotel. During our stay wi-fi didn't work in our room and I wasn't sure why but it didn't matter much really cuz we were not here for wifi. Wi-Fi was strong in reception and probably if they fix it you should bee okay. Staff are very nice as well.
