I have been to many Airbnb homes in which I described each place anywhere between "good and great". Columba's place exceeded great! Columba's home was truly a great find!
Let's begin with her physical space: she maintains a VERY clean home. The shared bathroom and living/eating space are immaculate! The bedroom is comfortable with a wonderful patio door that opens out to a small patio. There are blackout shades so it is easy to get a good night's sleep...really important when you are out eating and sightseeing beyond 12:00 a.m.! The double bed was very comfortable and there was plenty of closet space.
The breakfast: Columba serves is a delicious, fresh, light "continental-style" breakfast...which is quite enjoyable after a night of pintxos and wine or beer! You can have it on your private patio in your room...but I highly recommend having it on the balcony that leads out of the living room. This way you enjoy the beautiful views of San Sebastian and you can enjoy great conversation with Columba.
...and about Columba...she is incredibly smart, generous, and very accommodating. She had ideas for wonderful places to eat and places to visit within San Sebastian and in the bordering towns. After a long day of touring and late-night eating, I often found myself back at Columba's home staying up until the early morning hours chatting with her about our respective countries. If you are looking for a local guide of San Sebastian...look no further! Columba is your "guía" extraordinaire! She took me on a private pintxos tour and I learned so much about the Basque culture, its food and some of its history! Columba knows all the wonderful "locals" pintos bars! A great way to get to know the city too!
Todo esto dicho por decir que: I highly recommend Columba's place.
