Mantulene Apartments - Basque Stay
The place was impossible to find. It’s very hidden. I never got the check in email. The parking and gate were a bit to navigate as well. The host vaguely answered questions about problems including the AC not working, no conditioner. No garbage can. Everything was vague.

Axel Hotel San Sebastián - Adults Only
Great hotel, spacious room nicely styled. With bathroom etc being at angles it is quite tricky to navigate in the dark if need to during the night. Spa is a nice feature to have in a city centre location. Staff extremely helpful and friendly would stay again.

The Social Hub San Sebastián
The Social Hub concept is such a wonderful idea! I plan on staying with them at their other locations when traveling in Europe. It is going to a pleasure to witness their expansion!
