Peoperty is in a great location. Host very helpful ,some small things could be done better but overall good stzy
Had a wonderful stay at Anne's. Both Anne and her daughter who greeted me when I arrived, were extremely kind, helpful and welcoming.
I stayed two nights and felt very safe here as a female solo traveller. The location was perfect to explore San Sebastian, and the pension had all I needed to a comfortable stay. The breakfast was also a wonderful perk.
I would definitely stay here again if I was back in San Sebastian. Thank you Anne and your daughter. ❤️
Anne and her daughter were amazing hosts. Complimentary laundry and excellent breakfasts. Nothing too much bother for Anne and I would recommend staying at her pension to anyone. Ceiling fans are a welcome substitution to air con. I only 2 negatives to mention - 1. The pension is very central and located above several bars/takeaways, so it's noisy (so Anne provides complimentary ear plugs) and 2. The pension is on the 3rd floor and there is no elevator.
Other than that I look forward to seeing Anne again when we return to San Sebastián.

Clean and well looked after.
Very well looked after by the host and her daughter. Accommodation was clean and comfortable. Breakfast of tortilla and jamon rolls was excellent. Important to phone the host a couple of hours ahead of your arrival as the booking system does not always alert them to your arrival.
Anne fue muy amable y agradable, el desayuno estuvo increíble, la pensión queda Justo en el centro, muy cerca de todos los bares y restaurantes.

The host was delightful! So friendly and happy and very helpful. The hotel is listed as a 1 star hotel which is accurate. It’s a traditional ‘pension’ so you share facilities such as the bathroom and kitchen. Being in a beautiful old building, there are no elevators, so you need to carry your luggage up to the third floor which can be an effort.
The room was relatively clean and bed was somewhat comfortable. Sheets were clean but I don’t think the room had seen a vacuum cleaner in a while.
We were told breakfast was included but we didn’t see any breakfast - maybe we missed something in the communications. There was a little kitchen that contained some basics which we could eat/drink which was nice.
The surrounding area is the Old Town which is pinxtos party time on the weekends, so it’s quite noisy at night. Most places close and it gets quiet around 1-2am though.
This host is something else. She doesn't understand privacy. She also made racist comments about non-white guests at the property. She calls non-stop on whatsapp if she needs something from you. The promised breakfast happened sporadically. She would take barely used towels from the room and not give a fresh one. The pillows were disgusting (brown and stained) and the sheets and towels had dirty streaks on them.
To top it all, I got my food stolen from the fridge.
Would not recommend. It's better to cough up a bit more money and stay at a cleaner place where the host is a reasonable human and understand privacy.

The good and bad
Great location when we could eventually find it. Very noisy at night with people using the toilet or going in and out of rooms. Backing onto a square so very noisy until the early hours.Stay for location but don’t expect to sleep. Breakfast…

Not the cleanest or most modern accommodation, but Anne was lovely! She was very helpful at getting settled in and recommending parking. The included breakfast was a real bonus. There was a little confusion over the checking in! Apparently Anne tried to contact me ahead, but I didn't recieve anything...

Great location and reasonable service
Excellent for;
Great location at the heart of the old city is San Sebastian.
Wide room with comfortable bed.
Noted;
Very noisy with loud music till mid night around 2 am. Strongly recomends to have earplugs.
Limited hot water from shower only for 5 min, and it becomes cold water, take care.
We booked for a triple room with private bathroom. We went there only to find that only double rooms have private bathrooms. What they meant was that only us could use a bathroom right opposite our room. But of course, half the rooms in the floor were using the same bathroom...
Perfect location, city central. Hosts were really lovely, it was a shared bathroom but it was only us on our floor so we had the bathroom to ourselves.
