Very well located 10 min walk to the beach and 5 min walk to bus station to go to the city center. Would definitely recommend. " - "A bit far from the action" - "This is a hostel mainly for young proper as hostels usually are for. People coming in to the dormitory in the night talking and laughing loud. I was in a dormitory of 6 beds only for women. It was very small and the floor was crowded with big luggages even if there was a smaller box ( you need a locker) for your things.The bed was without curtain or anything like. The bathroom area was also very small. I have been to hostels more convenient than this one. And the price for one night was around 100 Euro!"

- "It was a surprise to find this hostel in hotels.com, since these kind of lodging usually doesn't appear on the search. First of all, this is not a place for everyone. If you like confort, cleanliness, gourmet food and having your own personal place, then this place is not for you. Having said this, I absolutely loved my weekend here! I met loads of awesome people and had a blast of a time. The free surf classes and beach time were great, the food provided was more than enough and the remote location of the house adds to the good vibes you feel when you get there. It's an asweome party place managed by young and energetic people. I was really sad I had to leave after just 2 days :("

- "Anne and her daughter were amazing hosts. Complimentary laundry and excellent breakfasts. Nothing too much bother for Anne and I would recommend staying at her pension to anyone. Ceiling fans are a welcome substitution to air con. I only 2 negatives to mention - 1. The pension is very central and located above several bars/takeaways, so it's noisy (so Anne provides complimentary ear plugs) and 2. The pension is on the 3rd floor and there is no elevator. Other than that I look forward to seeing Anne again when we return to San Sebastián. "
