This is such a fabulous place! When our kids entered their mouths almost literally fell open ;-)
Ana and her husband did a great job renovating this place with great taste and made very good use of the limited space they had available.
We travelled with 2 teenagers and although you need to use a pull-out bed when staying here with 4 people, this didn't bother us nor the kids. The pull-out bed is of good quality.
The master bedroom is great... spacious, full of light and air.
This apartment is a happy place on a wonderful location.
Some items in the fridge and pastries on the counter upon arrival are a great touch.
And when we were out of coffee capsules and asked where we could find a store that sells them, the next day we found a fresh box of capsules on our doorstep.
The place was clean and conveniently located (OK, getting yr luggage from the car to the apartment could be considered a bit of a hassle, but hey, you àre in a car-free zone after all).
The street noise or church bells didn't bother us, the windows close out most of the noise and it seemed the church bells only started chiming at 9am.
If Ana and Ignacio keep maintaining this place properly and there's no renters ruining it, this place will remain a long-term winner.
I definitely highly recommend.
Also, Ana has a Pinterest page with great tips.
Not sure anymore if the Labeko Okindegia bakery around te corner was on her list of tips, but that's where we got our wonderful breakfast breads in the morning.
If I ever go back to Bilbao, I will want to stay here again, no doubt !
