I had a fab stay. Authentic accommodation, positive staff, best possible location close to a metro stop. The views were particularly good.

Sublime place, fine beds, absolutely perfect staff. Hotel was fairly clean and we had a fine room. We really enjoyed the good pool. Besides, parking was available outside. The location was perfectly comfortable, relatively close to a hillside park.

The place was superior, we really loved it. Our superior queen room had a heating system, an electronic key card and a work desk. Reception staff made us feel welcome. A 15-minute walk will take you to La Karmela, where you can eat.

The hotel was set only 1 km to Parque Etxebarria. Honestly no complaints whatsoever. Choosing for lunch Bar Fermin, which is situated 600 metres away was a good idea. Begona district was worth staying in: )
