Pros:
- Location. Most hot spots and restaurants are walking distance away or a few tram stops away (tram ticket was very cheap ~1 euro)
- Ribera market is right across the street and there's a coffee shop on the corner of the block.
- Water pressure and hot water was good.
- Wifi worked fine.
- There is a washer AND dryer at the airbnb, however when I asked the host if there's detergent, he said that he did not know and told me to check under the sink. I checked and there was no detergent. So if you plan on doing laundry, bring some detergent or buy some.
Cons:
- A few household essentials were running low/empty. For example, there was enough shampoo, but conditioner bottle was almost empty. Other bottles of lotion were empty as well. It would have been nice if the host checked the bottles to see if any needed to be replenished. There was just a lot of random bottles in the bathroom cabinet that needed to be thrown out.
- There were no paper towels or facial tissues. The only paper goods we had were a few napkins that were in a napkin holder on the dining table. I couldn't find anything else in any cabinets or shelves. For a group of 4 guests, this was not enough for our stay. We quickly ran out and had to get napkins from other places to wipe our mouths and hands during meals at the airbnb.
- 2 guests slept in the queen sized bed and had no issues, but the 2 other guests slept in the 2 single beds in the other room and had trouble sleeping. They said they felt itchy throughout the night and thought maybe there were dust mites...
Overall, the stay was ok for its price, but if I were to visit Bilbao again, I would probably try a different airbnb.
