I recommend (Original) Arrivé à minuit au bout de ma vie après 28km, pluie et froid sur la fin. Tout les hébergements étaient complets et les refuges municipaux fermés. L'auberge affichait complet. Le réceptionniste voyant mon désarroi, m'a mis un lit dans la salle de réunion. J'ai pu dormir et prendre une douche. On m'a consenti une réduction. J'ai beaucoup apprécié ce geste d'humanité. Je recommande

    Very clean beds and bathroom. 18.75€ for the night seemed a little high but it was a nice place right on the Camino. Full kitchen, not super clean but I guess that’s on the pilgrims not the albergue. Two computers for your use.

    This is a lovely place, very close to the Camino, good facilities and quiet (even in August), or maybe I was just lucky. Walk across the lovely beach to the centre of town. I didn't cook as I was in San Sebastian and the food is amazing, but the kitchen seemed nice. There didn't seem to be much of an atmosphere, and there wasn't many fellow peregrinos when I was staying...I could have been the only one. All in all a lovely place with comfortable beds.

    (Translated by Google) There are quite a few things to say but I will be brief. We have been 5 nights in a weekend of course. The area is very good, close to the beach and shops are not far. Important thing because more than one will not want to eat the food they give (the truth leaves a little to be desired) The employees are professional and correct, but if there is a busy class, they will most likely invoke the Lord of the night, since from 10 o'clock no noise can be made "supposedly" The beds are quite mediocre but between the fart and how tired they are, it becomes comfortable. Take mosquitoes because they are like Apache combat helicopters. In general good and also clean. (Original) Hay bastantes cosas que decir pero seré breve. Hemos estado 5 noches en un fin de curso. La zona está muy bien, cerca de la playa y las tiendas no quedan nada lejos. Cosa importante porque a más de uno no le apetecerá comer la comida que dan (la verdad deja un poco que desear) Los empleados son profesionales y correctos pero si va una clase movida lo más probable es que invoquen al Señor de la noche, ya que a partir de las 10 no se puede hacer ruido "supuestamente" Las camas son bastante mediocres pero entre el pedo y lo cansado que estas se hace cómoda. Llevad antimosquitos porque son como helicópteros apaches de combate. En general bien y además limpio.

    (Translated by Google) Very nice hostel at an affordable price. Very close to the beach. Conditions quite bearable. Perfect for a larger group :) (Original) Bardzo fajny hostel w przystępnej cenie. Bardzo blisko plaży. Warunki całkiem znośne. Dla większej zgranej grupy idealny :)

    La comida y el agua son horribles y incomestible, hemos ido un grupo de amigos y todos están con diarrea; nos hemos encontrado restos de comida en cubiertos, y por si fuera poco, en la comida había pelos (en el plato de mi amigo mio habia una uña). Los trabajadores hacen cosas muy extrañas y da inseguridad dormir allí. Lo único bueno es la ubicación, pero como hemos estado con dolor de tripas no hemos podido disfrutar San Sebastián. Le doy una estrella porque no se puede poner cero.

    If you are in Camino de Santiago, this hostel will be good choice. far away from central of city but it’s OK for me. you need persnal lock for locker. and NO WIFI.

    Spent some time here in August while doing Le Camina. Surprised to see negative reviews. The Ondarreta is not a hotel nor an Air B and B. It is a basic hostel. Clean, well organised with excellent facilities and a great placement a few minutes walk from the beach. Very reasonable rates. Staff were friendly and helpful. Recommend.

    Dobrze że jest . Duża życzliwość w recepcji. Wygodne pokoje z toaletami, natryskami itp. Kuchnia z pełnym wyposażeniem, w której możesz przygotować posiłek. Pralnia. Miejsce prz szlaku Camino. Super.

    Trop loin du centre ville. Comptez environ 40 minutes à pieds. Au petit-déjeuner vous aurez le droit à du jus d’orange mélangé à de l’eau et à deux pauvres mini muffins secs. Le personnel n’est pas agréable et aimable. Les chambres restent correctes mais les chauffages sont à 40°.

    The expectation of the hostel is focusing on people walking the camila. It's in a nice part of town and not too expensive.

    (Translated by Google) La Sirena is an amazing hostel! Very good atmosphere, clean, well equipped and comfortable! The receptionist very very friendly both on the phone and in person. I will be back for sure! (Original) La Sirena és un alberg increïble! Molt bon ambient, net, ben equipat i còmode! El recepcionista molt molt amable tant per telèfon com presencialment. Tornaré segur!

    (Translated by Google) Make sure you really reserve your bed! I had e-mails and said that everything was fine and that I agreed, but that was not recognized as a reservation. In the end I had to be thankful that I got another bed. It's a youth hostel in the classic sense. Noisy! (Original) Passt auf, dass ihr Euer Bett wirklich reserviert! Ich hatte Mailverkehr und mitgeteilt, dass alles in Ordnung und ich einverstanden sei, aber das wurde nicht als Reservation anerkannt. Am Schluss musste ich dankbar sein, dass ich noch ein Bett gekriegt habe. Es ist ne Jugendherberge im klassischen Sinn. Laut!

    (Translated by Google) Located 50 meters from the passage of the Camino del Norte to Santiago. Ideal for pilgrims. They receive people 24 hours a day and 365 days a year. They have very large kitchen and dining facilities, since being a youth hostel they can accommodate a large number of people. The showers and the toilet are in the room; there are also in the corridors. Coin operated laundry and clothesline. Two supermarkets less than 400 meters away and the beach also about 400 meters away. Cool!!! (Original) Situado a 50 metros del paso del camino del Norte a Santiago. Ideal para peregrinos. Reciben a la gente durante las 24 horas del día y los 365 días del año. Disponen de instalaciones de cocina y comedor muy amplios, pues al ser albergue juvenil pueden acoger a gran número de personas. Las duchas y el WC, están en la habitación; también hay en los pasillos. Servicio de lavandería con monedas y tendedero. Dos supermercados a menos de 400 metros y la playa también a unos 400 m. Genial!!!

    (Translated by Google) Good hostel to rest. Close to Ondarreta beach and in a very quiet area. On the climb to Igueldo. (Original) Buen albergue para descansar. Cercano a la playa de Ondarreta y en zona muy tranquila. En la subida al Igueldo.

    (Translated by Google) If we compare with the hostel in Irún, this one is perfect, 33 euros for 2 people, in a room for 6 people with a sink inside the room, to sleep 1 perfect day. We ate out so the food I have no idea if it is good. Friendly staff treatment and they helped us for the bus to go downtown. (Original) Si comparamos con el albergue de Irún este está perfecto, 33 euros 2 personas, en una habitación de 6 personas con lavabo dentro la habitación, para dormir 1 dia perfecto. Cenamos fuera a si que la comida no tengo ni idea si es buena. Trato del personal amable y nos ayudaron para el bus para ir al centro.

    (Translated by Google) Of fart we got beds in the middle of the night, a capo the boy who took care of us. A room of 6 for us alone because only 50% of the accommodation is enabled. Everything was very clean, the room had a balcony that helped us to smoke, the beds comfortable and if you hear everything from the rooms next door and upstairs but from the sleep we had or did we feel if there was noise in the middle of the night, after by 12 o'clock everything calms down a bit. As it is a youth hostel, the quilombo is understandable. The kitchen with everything available to cook or heat food and quite clean, there were no people when we used it. The hostel is at the touch of the beach. I would repeat the visit 👌🏻 (Original) De pedo conseguimos camas en el medio de la noche, un capo el chico que nos atendió. Una habitación de 6 para nosotros solos porque está habilitado sólo el 50% del alojamiento. Muy limpio todo, la habitación tenía balcón que nos re sirvió para poder fumar, las camas cómodas y si se escucha todo de las habitaciones de al lado y arriba pero del sueño que teníamos ni sentimos si hubo ruido en el medio de la noche, después de las 12 se calma un poco todo. Como es albergue juvenil es entendible el quilombo. La cocina con todo a disposición para cocinar o calentar comida y bastante limpia, no había gente cuando la usamos. El albergue está al toque de la playa. Repetiría la visita 👌🏻

  • 1/5 Saskia v. 8 months ago on Google • 1 review
    This place is listed as a pelgrims hostel. Loods good for the imago but others can book months in advance. So pelgrims don't have a chance because planning is difficult. Now we had to walk another 10 km!!! It would be better to reserve 20 places in separate rooms for the pelgrims! So they can show up till 17.00 or so. Espescially in summer this would help.
