We booked this apartment because it was slightly out of the main tourist area and it was important for us to have peace and quiet whilst being near all the amenities. And it certainly was! We could see the surfers on the beach from our apartment and walk in about 10 minutes to the old town where all the fabulous bars and restaurants are. Our host, Mikel, couldn't have been more welcoming and had even left us a little bottle of Cava and some chocolates for us on arrival. The apartment has two bedrooms, one with a double bed and one with two singles. A well-equipped kitchen and plenty of reading material, too. It's on the top floor of a residential block and felt very safe and quiet, which was great. Mikel was in touch with us just beforehand and was waiting for us when we jumped out of our cab from the bus station (we walked back on the return journey, it takes about 20 minutes from the apartment and is a quick hour and a bit to Bilbao airport). Mikel had given us a typed list with recommended restaurants which was a huge help because there's just so much choice in San Sebastian. We hired bikes, walked and walked and ate the most fantastic food. Everyone was very friendly and we felt very safe. There's three beaches and the one Mikel's apartment is near is the surfy beach, a bit quieter than the others, just gorgeous. Anyway, all was fabulous and I'd go there again like a shot given the chance!
