Two words: Perfect location. The apartment is close to shops, markets, food (Pintxo heaven!), public transportation of every variety and the BEST TIPS on what to do, where to go and what to see while in Bilbao and the surrounding areas. The apartment is very well equipped for eating at home and with a big Carrefour Supermarket, smaller local markets in the nearby Casco Vieja and the famous Mercado Ribera right across the street we took advantage of the opportunity to eat in as a family for breakfast and dinner most days. We really enjoyed being so close to everything any tourist visiting Bilbao would want and/or need.
