We've had a great time at JJ's apartment. It's located very central; you can walk to every single hot spot in the city! Guggenheim, the old town, the funicular and so on. There are three supermarkets in the street and there is a great bakery too. We recommend to rent a car and visit the magnificent Rioja region (vineyards) and the beautiful coastal area near Gaztelugatxe. JJ responds very quick and gave us some nice tips!
