Beautiful apartment! Looked just like the pictures - if not better. We could walk everywhere in 15 mins or less. It is just minutes outside the old town, in a more residential area which was nice and quiet and felt safe but still had plenty on the doorstep (a great mini supermarket just up the road, some bakeries, bars, cafes etc). The only time it was a bit noisy was from construction/ rubbish collection but you could only hear this from the living room - not the bedrooms. It was very hot whilst we were in Bilbao so the apartment got a bit hot at points but there was a fan in the apartment and we could open all the windows in the evening which cooled it down nicely. The beds were comfy and the shower was nice and powerful! We would 100% recommend this apartment as a base to explore the lovely city of Bilbao!
