We had a great stay. Amazing apartment. Alejandra has taken care to decorate nicely. Very quick resposes.
Arrival: We came by car and stopped just outside the entrance to the apartment to unload the luggage. Alejandra was at the door to help check in.
Apartment: exactly as described on website. very clean. kitchen well stocked. Good washing machine.
although living room faces main road, hardly any noice. Bedrooms are totally quiet.
Alejandra stays in the apartment opposite with her husband and 3 kids and was very helpful. We wanted a can opener and she sent her husband to buy one for us immediately!
There is a Carrefour just opposite to the apartment as you cross the road.
Within one minutes walk, you are in the historic old town. Many eating places - delicious Pintxios everywhere.
Parking: We parked in Parking Arenal which is an underground parking about 1.2Km away. Thisbis the closest to the property. Charges are €17 per day, but if you want to take the car in and out during the day, you must book online in advance (at least 2-3 days before) and can be a little cheaper. Otherwise you pay each time you get in and out which can be more expensive. We stayed for 4 days and left the car there as everything in Bilbao is within walking distance or you can use the tram which is very cheap. We had a big car and parking was no problem.
The river is just one minute walk away from the apartment and you can walk everywhere along the riverbank, including to the funicular and Guggengeim Museum, and the walk along the river is beautiful.
In summary, we had a wonderful stay at Alejandra's.
