The apartment is perfectly situated. It is only a few minutes walk from the old town, right in the middle of the main town and so easy to get to the main bus stop, Gros or the Playa del a Concha. While being in the heart of the city the apartment overlooks a central courtyard so there is no street noise at all. It is so quiet. The only issue is if the person upstairs walks around at night as the floors creak. If you are a light sleeper this could be an issue.
If you are driving to San Sebastián you need parking included unless you want a very long walk, to take a bus to free parking or a hefty parking fee. The apartment comes with parking in San Martin private level. The only annoying thing is you need the parking card to get in & out the parking lot. This means you will need to find a space to collect / drop off keys and card when arrive / leave. Luckily the streets around the apartment have 15 free parking. The spaces are clearly labelled. You need to put in you car registration (press “Atzerriko matrikula” if don’t have a Spanish number plate) and get a ticket. There are so many traffic wardens so don’t try to not do this.
The apartment is huge, has the old wood feel as you can tell from the photos, a little dated but nothing to complain about. There are fans, washing machine, well powered shower, all the cleaning and washing products you can imagine. There is a few external clothes lines both outside or under cover. The beds are European hard but can make more comfortable using the duvets.
Communication was excellent and the fancy electronic door made check-in interesting bit worked well. The owner also send you loads of tips on where to do and what to see.
We really enjoyed our stay.
