Location is great if you want to go to the beach. Also enough close to the old town. The room is minimal with everything is needed for a quick visit to the city. Nothing specific I did not like. Maybe the desk in the room was particularly small in case you need it to work or anything like that.

This pension is ideal if your looking for somewhere central, reasonable and clean. The room itself is quite small but it suited us perfectly as we were rarely there. It is only a 3minute walk to La Concha beach and its very close to all shops, restaurants and the Old Town. The staff were very friendly and spoke English. Our room was made up everyday and fresh towels were provided. I couldn't fault this pension- the only negative I have, was the shower was slow to drain and as a result the shower tray used to fill up quickly. Also, the walls are quite thin but we slept all night and the air con is great. The pension is located on the first floor of an apartment block and was very secure. I'd recommend this pension, especially for it's location alone.

Stayed for 3 nights. Bedroom was small but clean. Bathroom was the same. Town is basically on your doorstep, same as the beach. Walls are very thin so don't even hope for a good night sleep. People were loud, even heard someone being sick all night. I wouldn't recommend to stay here.

Cuando llegamos la verdad es que a simple vista me sorprendió. Habitación muy amplia y muy bien ubicado. Sin embargo, después empiezas a ver las carencias y acabas decepcionado. Como digo, el tamaño de la habitación está muy bien y también al lado del centro. Ahora voy con los “peros”: El baño es súper pequeño, además está frente a la cama, algo que incomoda y más si la puerta está rota y no cierra (como era nuestro caso), quedando un gran trozo abierto hacia la habitación. Tiene un hervidor de agua, algo que se agradece, pero mejor no usarlo. Lo puse en funcionamiento y al echarme el agua en la taza, tuve que tirarla. Estaba llena de “pececitos” (vamos, que estaba cayendo toda la suciedad que tenía por dentro el hervidor. Asqueroso). Otro problema fue el secador. Duraba 50 segundos. Yo es algo que uso a diario, no mucho tiempo, pero sí para peinarme. Fui a comunicarlo (a las 10:30 de la mañana) y me dicen que por seguridad, se apaga (hombre, por seguridad 50 segundos… mejor entonces que no pongan un secador, ya que es imposible de utilizar). Me dice la mujer que no me preocupe, que me ponen uno en la habitación. Al llegar a las 20 horas, tenía que ducharme y lavarme el pelo y veo que no lo han dejado. Llamé al teléfono que te dejan (ya que en recepción no suele haber nadie) e imposible contactar. Total, que tuve que estar casi una hora en la habitación hasta que se me secase el pelo al aire, pues en la calle hacía frío y no podía salir con él empapado. Cuando vi a la recepcionista le dije lo que me pasó. Se disculpó por habérsele olvidado. Aún así, siguió sin dármelo. No di crédito. Qué falta de profesionalidad y de respeto hacia los clientes. Sentí que no les importamos nada. Y, por último, la limpieza brilla por su ausencia. Como he dicho antes, utilicé la taza para el agua del hervidor, al estar sucia, cogí otra que teníamos y calenté el agua para una infusión en un microondas que hay fuera. No limpiaron las tazas, las dejaron tal cual. Al día siguiente, lo mismo. El baño también sin limpiar. En definitiva, decepcionante. No lo recomiendo. Entiendo que sea una pensión, pero hay unos mínimos.

Conozco bien la ciudad de San Sebastián y me interesaba un alojamiento bien de precio en la zona de la concha, y la verdad es que lo clavamos eligiendo esta pensión. Las instalaciones son normales, cómodas, limpias, o sea que cumplió perfectamente las expectativas que teníamos.
