“What strikes me is its position right in the heart of the old town, steps from the best pintxos bars; though on a busy street, rooms are reportedly quiet enough. I picture clean, basic rooms, and a communal kitchen adds real value. The stairs might be a bit much after a glass or two of txakoli, but I think it's a fair trade for the location and price.”
