If you are able to find dates when this apartment is available, take my advice and book without delay! Because once word spreads about how great this newly-renovated apartment truly is, it is going to be in very high demand. Why? Because because Josu & Oroitz are fantastic hosts, and their apartment is every bit as luxurious as the photos and description suggest. The location near Plaza Easo is ideal, with plenty of cafes, bakeries, restaurants, bars, and a supermarket within a stone’s throw. The train station is at the opposite end of the Plaza, three minutes walk from the apartment. And both the beach and the bus station are easily reachable on foot (<10 minute walk).
We couldn’t have asked for better hosts. Josu & Oroitz communicated brilliantly from the time of booking straight though to the day of arrival. They even greeted my family and me at the apartment to show us around and make sure we were comfortable. It was an extra touch of hospitality that made us feel at home and relaxed. They’ve though of everything, including custom guidebooks to help heir guests discover Donostia’s best sights and tastes.
The apartment is absolutely lovely! The decor and accessories set the right mood. We loved the design — the wood and marble tiling and hardwood floors definitely made us feel the luxury. The crown-molded drop ceilings are stunning. The bedrooms were quiet, and the beds were comfortable and well appointed with crisp, clean linens. The kitchen has all the necessary essentials, including a Nespresso machine and coffee pods and tea kettle with a selection of teas.
Don’t let the lack of reviews for this apartment deter you from booking. There aren’t many reviews because the place is brand new (newly-renovated, I should say); however, Josu & Oroitz are headed to ’super-host’ status with a bullet, and before you know it this place will be booked solid. We just checked out today and are already booking our next stay here because we don’t need to look anywhere else in San Sebastián.
