We had a great stay and weren't bothered at all by our host. There was a bottle of wine waiting for us when we arrived. My girlfiriend can speak Spanish so the communication was not a problem either, however the written english we communicated in was excellent. Everything we needed was provided including towels. San Sebastián is a lovely place even if a little expensive and some of the views are spectacular. The only bad thing was a bathroom across a hallway but this was compensated for, by being able to eat breakfast on a lovely veranda.
