Great location, clean, friendly

Brilliant location in the old quarter, a hop from the cathedral, close to the market and bars/cafes. Easy check in, Netflix!, quiet apart from the other residents chatting loudly early in the morning (why don’t people appreciate others may still be asleep??!)

Convenient stay in old town Bilbao

A wonderful and convenient location in the old town, but taxis not allowed on the street so we had to drag our luggage two blocks in be rain to get there. Showers are minuscule. Otherwise, we enjoyed our stay immensely

The property was situated in the old town in a great location. A little tricky to find at first but once we located it was great to explore Bilbao. Parking at an additional cost was close by.

Stayed for 3 nights in early May 2025. The pension itself is fine, booking in & access straightforward, room was in pretty good condition and an above average shower, although some of the furniture in the room was quite lightweight. As it is situated in the Old Town, the big plus is many bars and restaurants are nearby, so nothing is really more than 3-5min walk if you want to stay local. Plaza Nueva is great - with maybe 20 pintxo bars and restaurants. The rest of Casco Vieja was a bit too full of loud music drinking joints for me - nothing wrong with that, just personal taste. Other than Plaza Nueva, there were better pintxo bars to be found across the bridge in Abando & Moyua areas IMO. The street below the Pension did get quite noisy in the early hours, but only on one night did it disturb our sleep. Overall, I would recommend the accommodation, but maybe not for those who prefer to be situated in a more tranquil neighbourhood.

Good value and position

we arrived before 12 and the man arrived about 12.05 so didn't have to wait too long. The room was clean and well appointed and the pension was in a ideal position for the old town

This place is great. Central in old town, close to metro, tram, the cathedral, the Ribeira market, and in a very lively area with restaurants and bars (pinxtos!). I accidentally loaded the Bilbao transit card with too much credit, so I used the tram to go where I would normally walk to (eg the Guggenheim) and I'm thankful the Arriaga tram stop was a 2minute walk from this place. The bldg felt secure, code needed to enter the bldg, the elevator, and the room. The property was very new and clean. Noise insulation was good. Would stay again.

This place was great. Great location, close to the metro and tram, in the heart of old town, I never met a staff member as the reception hours were reduced due to the new years. They contacted me via Expedia to collect information beforehand so the check in process was done online and code was used for access. Similarly my request to move my bags (I moved from this room to another mid stay) was also executed flawlessly using online communication. Secure bldg, very modernized with amazing insulation. My room actually faced a lively street with bars and eateries yet I had no bothersome noise. Plenty of outlets and shelves, espresso machine and fridge, a nice "quality of life" upgrade for travelers, towels were changed daily and coffee was refilled daily. That said if I have to criticize one thing, it's the design placement of the shower, or the lack of shower curtain and/or glass divider between the shower and the toilet. Perhaps someone taller than me could stand exactly in the path of the showerhead to prevent the water from getting all over the floor and the toilet but there just wasn't any height/angle combo of the showerhead that accomplished that for me. It isn't too big of an inconvenience other than having to put a whole towel on the floor for slip hazard prevention. That was really, really the only flaw I noticed. I will definitely be back to stay again.

In Bilbao for a conference, three nights. This was a convenient historical centre location close to taxis, two supermarkets, good place for breakfast, recently refurbished, clean, room made up every day. No reception: street door, lift to first floor, and room door, all opened with a code.
