Benat is a lovely and welcoming host, on our arrival providing maps, bus routes, supermarket information, many local tips and advice on the local pinxto bars in town. How to order pinxtos and the best days of the week for happy hour, the 2€ drinks and pinxto (Thursdays in Gros area). Benat also went out of his way to assist us with our film festival questions and securing tickets. He really took care of us and kept us well informed for free movies in town and local events he read in the newspaper.

This is quite a cosy apartment on the first floor, Benat insisted to help us with our luggage. Full kitchen facilities, parking, Washing machine and free wifi handy. The apartment is well located, 10 minutes walk to la concha beach, then another 10 minutes into Old town, the apartment is located up a hill, so we walked to town and caught the bus back, much easier!...We had a car so this was perfect as we could leave it at the apartment during our stay. Note, you cannot park your car in the old town as much of san Sebastian is closed for pedestrian walking only. we also caught the bus many times, from the front of the apartment into town, 1.60€per person. The bus takes 5-10 mins into the city. One day we drove down to the beach and street parked for 2 hours by paying ticket meter (3€). The apartment is on many city bus lines and we never had to wait more than 5 mins for a direct express bus into the city.... This was the best and most convenient, especially during Siesta time when shops close 1:30-4:30 and we wanted to quickly go home. There is also a supermarket opposite the apartment 2 minutes walk. Wonderful communication from Benat throughout the booking process, pre and post arrival. Good stay and great for a young couple.
