Only stay at this hostel if you acknowledge these issues. I wouldn't stay again. Liked · It was generally clean and the location is fantastic if you want to be close to the pintxos. The man working at the front desk was very nice and helpful when he was around. He was very accommodating when I asked to switch to a lower and more comfortable vacant bed in the room. The kitchen was surprisingly modern. The terrace is nice. Disliked · -The person working at the front desk was barely there so if you have any issues you're basically out of luck. For example, if you checked out and accidentally left something in your room you can't just come back an hour after checkout because he probably won't be back until 4pm. -The key cards stop working exactly at 11am on the day of your checkout including for the lounge so if, for example, you run upstairs to the 4th-floor lounge to grab your leftover food and you get there at 11:01am not only will you be unable to get into the lounge but you will now be locked out of your room. -Not all beds have electrical outlets next to them. -Uneven bed quality - I could feel individual springs my first bed. -Most of the electricity in the room is tied to having a room key in the holster on the wall which is a nice thought for electricity savings but it means that if you're asleep and the owner of the key in the holster leaves the room that your devices will stop charging. -The internet is basically non-functional. The WiFi signal is fine from all rooms, but the internet connection is so slow and frequently just stops working rendering it basically useless. Don't bother trying even a voice-only WiFi call. -The temperature in the rooms is fixed at 24C - there were 3 people staying my 8 bed room and the top bunk was basically impossible to sleep on unless both windows were open because it was so hot in there (the bottom bunks were more OK). Even the guy at the front desk cannot adjust the temperature down. I can't imagine what it would be like in there if all of the beds were full and it were August instead of early July. -The entire lounge+kitchen is closed at 12am which means if you want to have a snack or a glass of water after midnight you will be unable to do so.

It’s completely passable as a hostel and I felt it was clean but there is one huge drawback: the street noise at night from bars was so incredibly loud (even with noise canceling AirPods) that sleeping was impossible. If you go here at least make sure you have a room as far away as possible from street level. Beds weren’t great either: metal spring beds that were bent through and make noise when you move around.

(Translated by Google) Incredible hostel! It has everything you need and right in the middle of the bars and the most commercial area. All very well isolated and especially in the rooms that face the interior. Also, the impeccable receptionist. Very kind and attentive at all times. If I have to put a stick is the pillow, which was very thin, and a little mattress. But for the price, the time and the location I recommend it and repeat it! (Original) Hostal increíble! Tiene de todo lo necesario y justo en medio de los bares y la zona más comercial. Todo muy bien aislado y sobretodo en las habitaciones que dan al interior. Además, la recepcionista impecable. Muy amable y atenta en todo momento. Si tengo que poner una pega es la almohada, que era muy delgada, y un poco el colchón. Pero por el precio, la época y la ubicación lo recomiendo y repetiría!

(Translated by Google) The receptionist is great. He helped me plan my sightseeing afternoon. Great cleaning both in room and in common areas. I put a 3 because it does not offer as much to pay what they ask. (Original) La recepcionista es majísima. Me ayudó a planificar mi tarde de turismo. Limpieza genial tanto en habitación como en zonas comunes. Le pongo un 3 porque no ofrece tanto como para pagar lo que piden.

(Translated by Google) Excellent location in the old town. Something expensive for what it is. Beds are contracted not rooms. You can have companies to sleep according to your luck. The bunk beds have good robustness and the mattresses are comfortable. Very tight rooms for two bunk beds four people. The bathroom in the room that I occupy something old and small that needs an update. Yes, the nice reception girl. (Original) Ubicación excelente en pleno casco viejo. Algo caro para lo que es. Se contratan camas no habitaciones. Puedes tener compañías para dormir según la suerte que tengas. Las literas tienen buen aspecto de robustez y los colchones son cómodos. Habitaciones muy ajustadas para dos literas cuatro personas. El baño de la habitación que yo ocupe algo viejo y pequeño que necesita una actualización. Eso sí, la chica de recepción simpática.

(Translated by Google) Excellent location and attention. I would give it six stars if possible. We were attended by LAURA in March and she treated us very gently at all times and gave us eight-person rooms that, although shared, have a private bathroom in each room (with soap in the showers). While it was not full at the time, the cleanliness was noticeable and everything was impeccable, from end to end. The same cuisine and if they do not have breakfast they have a partnership with the bakery next door where for € 2.5 they can enjoy a coffee and croissant. Again I recommend this hostel without a doubt, and many thanks Laura for your attention! (Original) Excelente ubicación y atención. Le daría seis estrellas de ser posible. Nos atendió LAURA la encargada en marzo y nos atendió en todo momento muy gentilmente y nos dio unas habitaciones de ocho personas que si bien son compartidas, tienen un baño privado en cada habitación (con jabón en las duchas). Si bien no estaba lleno en su momento, la limpieza se notaba y estaba todo impecable, de punta a punta. La cocina igual y si bien no tienen desayuno tienen un partnership con la panadería de al lado donde por 2,5€ pueden disfrutar de un café y croissant. Nuevamente les recomiendo sin duda alguna este hostel, y muchísimas gracias Laura por su atención!

You get what you pay for…it’s true that there is air conditioning, but it’s locked at 24c. The wifi only works in the lobby, and doesn’t work in any of the rooms or terraces. The beds are super rickety with poor quality mattresses and pillows. Also, it’s difficult to access the front desk as the attendant is gone most of the time. There is not enough storage space in the rooms, and it is difficult to even access your own bag with how cramped everything is. The only highlight is the location.

Reception not there when you need them, they have very limited working hours. My roommate's bed was literally on the floor. Extremely basic, I didn't even have an electrical outlet. Great location in the heart of Old Town, but apart from that merely functional. Poor value for the price.

All the 1 and 2 star reviews are accurate. This hostel is affordable, but has many issues. They advertise wifi access, but there is no obtainable wifi in the rooms or the terrace. Access to power outlets is very limited in the rooms. Bed quality is very poor. Air conditioning is restricted and does not keep rooms cool.

(Translated by Google) Hostel with reduced hours. A little expensive and few plugs in the room. The attention and location, VERY good. (Original) Hostel con horarios de atencion reducidos. Un poco caro y pocos enchufes en la habitacion. La atencion y ubicacion, MUY buenas.

Good

(Translated by Google) The location in the old town is very nice but the night is noisy. Watch out for walkers Good welcome clean room (Original) L'emplacement ds la vielle ville est très sympathique mais la nuit est bruyante. Attention aux marcheurs Bonne accueil chambre propre

(Translated by Google) Very central and well located (Original) Muy céntrico y bien situado

no light on the first floor stairs. fell off and broke my leg

(Translated by Google) Good pension, comfortable beds and individual lockers in case you have to share a room, the charge of two euros for the towels seemed a bit excessive but the rest perfect, very central. (Original) Buena pensión, camas cómodas y taquillas individuales por si tienes que compartir habitación, el cobro de dos euros por las toallas me pareció un poco excesivo pero el resto perfecto,muy céntrico.

Great hostel type place veru central, nice staff.

(Translated by Google) In the middle. Cleansed. (Original) En el centro. Limpio.

(Translated by Google) The city stinks like a toilet. The tide exposes the maw. San Sebastian smells like a toilet. Do not try !!! (Original) Die Stadt stinkt wie auf einer Toilette. Die Ebbe legt den mief frei. San Sebastian smells like a Toilette. Don't try!!!

(Translated by Google) Does anyone know the email? (Original) Alguien sabe el correo electronico?

(Translated by Google) Good place to sleep (Original) Buen lugar para dormir

(Translated by Google) I give it only one star because it leaves a lot to be desired in terms of a minimum of cleaning. We were 4 days and did not pass a broom and the most amazing was to check that they do not change the bottom, or the quilt. They only change the savannah. (Original) Le doy solo una estrella por que deja mucho que desear en cuanto a un mínimo de limpieza. Estuvimos 4 días y no pasaron una escoba y lo más flipante fue comprobar que no cambian la bajera, ni la colcha. Sólo cambian la sabana.

This was the worst experience of my trip around the entire country of Spain staying in dozens of hostels, absolutely do not give this establishment your business!! The reception is never there, not even during the very limited listed hours, they seem to just take time off as they feel. If you forget your key in your room, you will have no way into the building, they will not pick up a phone call or mail email back. It felt as if all my belongings were hostage. This was a nightmare stay and please if you read this, do not stay here.

No bar but there's a great terrace that overlooks the street and bars. The hostel provides disposable cups for pre drinks which is a nice thought. We needed to change rooms once we had arrived and even though it was almost fully booked the staff were able to accommodate our needs free of charge

This place was awful. The elevator was broken, the WiFi didn't work in our rooms, the rooms themselves were poorly laid out, there wasn't enough room for my hooves at the end of the bed, and the front desk isn't open for roughly half of the day, which is a huge problem for my milking time. The only saving graces were the people working the front desk. They didn't help us all that much, but gosh if a cow couldn't find friendlier people. Otherwise, cattle on.

Hand down worst hostel I've stayed anywhere in the entire world. Key wouldn't work so had to sleep outside for the night, no contact information or help provided. Then the scum came back and blamed me the next day. Filthy people, sincerely hope they are not making a cent of profit. Plastic plates, lol. Pathetic.

Extremly small rooms, incompetent and unfriendly staff and overpriced. Not recommended, unless you cannot find any other acommodation for your stay.

A nice location but for the Money the Hostel costs I want higher standard.

Great place great location 👍

(Translated by Google) Very clean and above all a great staff. Super courteous and friendly, even if you do not speak Basque. (Original) Sehr sauber und vor allem ein tolles Personal. Super zuvorkommend und freundlich, auch wen man kein baskisch spricht.

The worst ,and too much expensive

great dorm

Great location!

(Translated by Google) Great site. Super well located. With a lot of charm. Near the beach and in the party and pintxos area. There is a good quality price relation. We liked the locker system. Inside the room. Key and a Euro that when opened is returned to you. We also enjoyed the upstairs terrace very much as we found it a very nice place. You have the right to a kitchen and you can keep what you need in the fridge during your stay. To put a but, I would say that there were no towels, but it is not something rare in these places and that despite the fact that the windows are thick, you can hear some noise from the premises below that are open until late hours but if you are from good sleep, is a detail that you can overlook. We fell dead after the day's crash ... I recommend on site. We liked it a lot. (Original) Estupendo sitio. Super bien ubicado. Con mucho encanto. Cerca de la playa y en la zona de fiesta y pintxos. Muy buena relación calidad - precio. Nos gustó el sistema de taquillas. Dentro de la habitación. Llave y un Euro que al abrir se te devuelve. La terraza de arriba también la disfrutamos mucho ya que nos pareció un lugar muy agradable. Tienes derecho a cocina y puedes guardar en la nevera lo que necesites durante tu estancia. Por poner un pero, diría que no había toallas, pero tampoco es algo raro en estos sitios y que a pesar de que las ventanas son gruesas, se oye algo el ruido de los locales de abajo que están abiertos hasta altas horas pero si eres de buen dormir, es un detalle que puedes pasar por alto. Nosotras caímos muertas después de la reventada del día... Recomiendo en sitio. Nos gustó mucho.

(Translated by Google) Great hospitality, very helpful and attentive staff. Very easy to understand. The room was clean from the beginning to the end of my trip. Great location but do not sleep open window as it is one of the most frequented neighborhoods in the evening in summer! Fortunately there is air conditioning. (Original) Super accueil, personnel très serviable et à l'écoute. Très facile de ce faire comprendre. La chambre était propre du début à la fin de mon voyage. Super emplacement mais ne pas dormir la fenêtre ouverte car c'est l'un des quartiers les plus fréquenter le soir en été ! Heureusement qu'il y a une climatisation.

Je recommande +++ : auberge située en plein centre de la vieille ville, parfait pour se balader dans le centre à pied, personnel sympathique, nous étions dans une chambre de 4 propre à notre arrivée avec salle de bain dans la chambre (douche italienne) et 4 casiers individuels qui peuvent être fermé à clef si on insère une pièce de 1€. Draps légers donc prévoir couverture/duvet/pyjama s'il fait froid. La fenêtre donne sur la rue qui est animée (bars tapas) mais on est assez bien isolé du son donc pas de problème. Petit balcon, idéal si fumeur. Au 4e étage se trouve une cuisine équipée commune à toute l'auberge si on veut cuisiner, avec tables et chaises, et une terrasse spacieuse. Il faut arriver aux heures où l'accueil est ouvert pour s'enregistrer mais ensuite on a chacun une carte magnétique qui permet de rentrer et sortir des chambres et de l'auberge.

(Translated by Google) Normal hostel, it is good to spend one night. (Original) Hostal normal, está bien para pasar una noche.

(Translated by Google) Little cleaning. Very noisy. Very small rooms The kitchen has virtually no utensils. (Original) Limpieza poca. Muy ruidoso. Habitaciones muy pequeñas. La cocina prácticamente no tiene utensilios.

(Translated by Google) Hostel left a little to itself, not great management. The staff doesn't explain anything to you, they don't give you a map of the city. Small room but the second star deserves the bathroom. Very serious that the wi fi signal does not reach the bed. Not worth the price (40 € per night) (Original) Ostello lasciato un po' a se stesso, non una grande gestione. Il personale non ti spiega niente, non ti da la cartina della città. Camera piccola ma la seconda stella se la merita il bagno. Gravissimo che non arrivi il segnale del wi fi al letto. Non vale il prezzo speso (40€ a notte)

(Translated by Google) Very well located, but street with a lot of night noise. You have to make the bed and the blankets smell a little bad. The very friendly receptionist (Original) Muy bien situado, pero calle con mucho ruido nocturno. Te tienes que hacer la cama y las mantas huelen un poco mal. El recepcionista muy amable

(Translated by Google) Very good location in the center surrounded by tapas bars. At night you hear a lot of street noise. Clean rooms. (Original) Muy buena ubicación en pleno centro rodeado de bares de tapas. Por la noche se oye mucho el ruido de la calle. Habitaciones limpias.

(Translated by Google) The rooms, excellent. The whole building, in general. Details, they do not provide breakfast and, it is NOT SO close to the beach. I recommend it, have a very good experience. Very good atmosphere is generated on the terrace (by the way, you can be in it until 00:00) (Original) Las habitaciones, excelentes. Todo el edificio, en gral. Detalles, no brindan desayuno y, no está TAN cerca de la playa. Lo recomiendo, pase una muy buena experiencia. Se genera muy buen ambiente en la terraza (por cierto, se puede estar en la misma hasta las 00:00 hs)

(Translated by Google) Very highly recommended. We stayed several friends in a room with 4 bunk beds. Bright rooms, spacious bathroom and everything very clean. To highlight the air conditioning with thermostat, which was essential in July. The location of the unbeatable Hostel, in the center of the city and close to all the pintxos bars. In our plant there was also a common room with beautiful views. On the other hand, the kitchen on the top floor very well furnished and organized (plates, glasses, cutlery and even labels to identify your food) and the roof terrace great. The staff was lovely and the service excellent. Obviously some noise at night, but that's what the area has. The windows have shutters that help to fight it, so perfectly bearable. We will return if we can! (Original) Muy muy recomendable. Nos alojamos varios amigos en una habitación de 4 literas. Habitaciones luminosas, baño amplio y todo muy limpio. A destacar el aire condicionado con termostato, que fue imprescindible en julio. La localización del Hostel inmejorable, en el centro de la ciudad y cerca de todos los bares de pintxos. En nuestra planta había, además, una salita de uso común con vistas preciosas. Por otro lado, la cocina de la planta superior muy bien amueblada y organizada (platos, vasos, cubiertos y hasta etiquetas para poder identificar tu comida) y la terraza en la azotea genial. El personal fue encantador y el trato excelente. Evidentemente algo de ruido por las noches, pero es lo que tiene la zona. Las ventanas tienen contraventanas que ayudan a combatirlo, así que perfectamente soportable. ¡Volveremos si podemos!

(Translated by Google) The dwarf room, very dirty, there was no maid service and the companions who touched us were badly polite and disgusting. The bathroom is small and very dirty too. The bunks seem to be breaking at any time. The receptionist a bad mannered. I do not plan to return and I do not recommend it. VERY EXPENSIVE. (Original) La habitación enana, muy sucio, no había servicio de limpieza y los compañeros que nos tocaron unos mal educados y asquerosos. El baño pequeño y muy sucio también. Las literas parece que se van a romper en cualquier momento. El recepcionista un mal educado. No pienso volver y no lo recomiendo. CARISIMO.

(Translated by Google) Excellent location in the old town located in 1 of the streets where the best restaurants and pintxos bars of the city are located. Convenient for the beaches. Clean and equipped with kitchen and dining room which can be enjoyed freely. (Original) Ottima la posizione nella città vecchia situato in 1 delle vie dove si teovano i migliori ristoranti e pintxos bar della città. Comodo x le spiagge. Pulito e dotato di cucina e sala da pranzo di cui si può fruire liberamente.

(Translated by Google) The hostel itself was fine, although it was a bit inconvenient, not a system that the staff always stayed at the reception. It is clean and the water comes out well. Location is good, too. There is a pub right in front of you, but it's okay on weekdays. I do not know the weekend ... The bed had a steel frame and the mattress was uncomfortable. It's not bad for a day or so. (Original) 리셉션에 직원이 항상 상주하는 시스템이 아니라 조금 불편하기는 하지만, 호스텔 자체는 괜찮았어요. 깨끗하고 물도 잘 나오고요. 일단 위치도 좋고요. 바로 앞에 펍이 있는데 평일은 괜찮아요. 주말은 모르겠음... 침대는 철재 프레임이있는데 매트리스가 불편했어요. 하루정도 머물기에는 나쁘지 않아요

(Translated by Google) Perfect (Original) Perfecto

(Translated by Google) A very well located hostel in the old town of San Sebastián, above the tapas bars and local entertainment, the bedroom windows are very well soundproofed !! The bedroom remains very small, two bunk beds and a very narrow passage to access the ladders between the 2, you don't have to be big! It is a bit cold at night, but it's okay. The kitchen is very clean and great and in addition a beautiful high terrace! I recommend this place for 2/3 nights in order to enjoy the tapas of the old town and the beach 5 minutes walk away! (Original) Une auberge très très bien situé dans la vieille ville de San Sébastien, au dessus des bar a tapas et de l'animation local, les fenêtres de la chambre sont très bien insonorisé !! La chambre reste très petite, deux lit superposé et un très étroit passage pour accéder aux echelles entre les 2, faut pas être gros ! Il fait un peu froid la nuit, mais ça passe. La cuisine est très propre et super et en plus une belle terasse en hauteur ! Je recommande ce lieux pour 2/3 nuits afin de profiter des tapas de la vieille ville et de la plage à 5 minutes à pied !

(Translated by Google) Hotel near restaurants ideally located in the old town. Small flat, however, only 1 sheet provided and no cover but a bed cover. (Original) Hôtel proche des restaurants idéalement situé dans la vieille ville. Petit bémol cependant 1 seul drap fourni et pas de couverture mais un dessus de lit.

(Translated by Google) I did not like anything (Original) No me gustado nada

(Translated by Google) Great location for this hostel: in the middle of the central street of San Sebastian. From here you can get anywhere in no time. The structure however has too small and constrained rooms: in those with two bunk beds one can pass one at a time as far as space is concerned. (Original) Ottima posizione per questo ostello: al centro della strada centrale di San Sebastian. Da qui potete arrivare dovunque in pochissimo tempo. La struttura pero' ha stanze troppo piccole e costrette: in quelle con due letti a castello si puo' passare uno alla volta per quanto e' stretto lo spazio.

(Translated by Google) All very clean and very well soundproofed from street noise. Very well located, in the old town. The only bad thing, the uncomfortable bed. (Original) Todo muy limpio y muy bien insonorizado del ruido de la calle. Muy bien ubicado, en el casco antiguo. Lo único malo, la cama incómoda.

This hostel over charged me by €408. When I arrived they told me that their card machine was out of battery and they would charge my card I had on hostel world as a convenience later on that afternoon. They they charged me the amount owed as well as 2 x transactions at €204.00. Upon trying to contact them about the over charged transactions they were rude and did not want to help at all saying they would look at it when they can, on the 3rd phone call they just hung up on me. They also did not respond to any emails I sent even when they told me to resend them and they would acknowledge the emails the didn’t. They charged me a total off €581.40 for a 2 night stay. Rooms were small and crowded staff are rude and no help
