I chose Masa and Borja's apartment as the base for my friends and I to celebrate my 30th birthday over the weekend. In the lead up to the stay, Masa was incredibly helpful in creating a small itinerary and recommendations for places to eat, drink and dance (including amazing options for my birthday dinner). We were welcomed to the apartment by Borja who was very friendly showing us around the apartment and listing his must-dos for Donostia.

The apartment was a great size and didn't feel small even at full capacity with 8 people. It was a short and pleasant walk away from the Old Town and very close to the beach. The area that the apartment is located is very safe and surrounded by great pinxto bars and brunch spots. It was actually quite nice to be away from the main beach, Playa de la Concha, as it gets very crowded over the weekend.

The only thing that the apartment needs is a fan for each room (instead of just the 2 provided) as it can get a bit stuffy during the summer months and guests should know that there is not much natural light in the kitchen/living room and back rooms - but these are minor points.

I can't recommend this place enough. Thanks!
