    The hostel was really nice and clean. The reception is only "on-demand", i.e. when you book, you should stick to your arrival time or call if you are late. Otherwise, the host will be either angry or not there ;).

    Overall we had a great stay. We had a bit of trouble getting in because we arrived at 10:30pm and our check in time was 8pm, so make sure yours is accurate so he's there to let you inside.

    Probably the best I stayed at in spain. The location is great, everything is spotless, and Miguel is one of the coolest old dudes i have ever met. Definitly one to go to. Plus San Sebastion itself is incredible.

    Miguel made my San Sebastian experience as amazing as it was. The place should be great once he installs the common area too =]. I highly recommend this hostel. Super clean and feels like home.

    Great located Hostel!!! Thin walls so we heard EVERYTHING. Very nice host who although didn't speak English tried to guide us about the city. NO parking. Had a WI-FI connection and a connected PC at the "lobby".

    We LOVED our stay here. The place was very clean with single beds instead of bunk beds and a great location. We would definitely stay again, it felt more like a hotel than a hostel. Miguel was fantastic and extremely helpful and friendly. Loved every minute and highly recommend

    It´s small and funky at first glance, but the rooms are pretty spacious and kept clean. The walls are thin and both neighbors and the city are very loud. But Miguel was an excellent host and was accomodating to all of our needs! The hostel is within easy walking distance to the beaches,...

    A nice place, a lovely owner/manager. He didnt have a word of english, but our bit of Italian, and alot of pointing at a map, he gave us all the info we needed. Always not a nice welcome, and good-by, and got beach towels every day. It was a pleasure.
