The host wasn’t very patient. Spanish isn’t my first language and she was not very patient when answering any questions I had about the property. Location wise, this is the BEST place to visit!

San Sebastián is Amazing
Host was great, but hotel is hard to find due to the fact that it is actually called Pensìon San Thelma not San Juan. San Juan is the street. Beds were pretty uncomfortable and the noise was really bad due to the bar next door. Luckily I had earplugs. On the plus side the location in old town is hard to beat. Bu it is noisy everywhere there late into the night. If you need quiet stay in the newer part of town.

I read the reviews before and want sure what to think, but the ones pointing out little things were accurate. This is a hostel except you get your own bedroom. The bed hurt my back, it was stuffy and hot in the room, the shower had mold all around it, and they don’t accept payment until you’re there which I found very off putting and strange. It’s very walkable but you better not be a light sleeper as it can be louder outside til 1/2am. Overall San Sebastián is just expensive compared to many other great cities and $600 here gets you half of what you’ll get in other cities and twice the rate. Coffee, market, food all very walkable.
Amazing location! The staff was super friendly and accommodating. Would recommend if you are looking for a stay that’s an easy walk to all the great things San Sebastián has to offer!
Great location. Dozens of restauramts within walking distance, the beach, surrounded by history. Quite noisy at night with people in the street till 4am. Not a quiet location.

Understanding that a pension is not a hotel this property is okay. Take into consideration that in these places you share bathroom and shower.
The top blankets looks worn and not cleaned. The walls are dirty. Did not realize this is a hostel. The bathrooms are vey dirty in the evenings once the not0sp-friendly housekeeper leaves. This is very over-priced
NO lo recomiendo! No hay comunicación entre el staff y los huéspedes.
Tienes que resolver tú solo cómo entrar a la pensión después de las 8:00pm, nadie te ayuda.
Mala actitud por parte de la sola persona que se presentó al día siguiente.
Vi blev lite överraskade över att det står på hemsidan att det finns air-condition, men det finns inte. Endast liten fläkt.
Man kan inte ha fönstret öppet för det är fest utanför hela natten och då finns m.a.o ingen ventilation i ett 8m2 rum för 2p.
Det finns två badrum som är i relativt dåligt skick och ofta upptagna.
Platsen för boendet är dock perfekt, inne i Gamla stan med en massa bra restauranger överallt och med två stränder inom 5 min. En surfstrand och en badstrand.
De som jobbar där är hjälpsamma med taxi och sånt.
Very affordable and the check in was quite easy. The rooms were spacious and although there is some construction in the area it really didn't effect our stay. Important to know that the bathrooms are shared by all rooms on the floor not just between rooms. The bathrooms are clean and they lock so it was not a big deal just good to know. Also parking is difficult if you dont drive in the city but there are some parking garages in short walking distance although a little pricey it makes life much easier.
Correct pour le prix , 90€ pour 2 adultes et 2 enfants pour un samedi soir
En plein centre festif ( attention le bruit de rue la nuit !), Pension correcte , sdb très propre , serviettes de toilette fournies, chambre 4 lits ok par contre sentait le tabac ++...

The spot has super cool location in the old town. One of shared bathroom is from 80ties, another one modern and new with double shower cabin. However our room desperatly needs refurbishment, especially when it comes to mattreses. In general it is okey, but needs refreshment. You have cofee available for one euro in the corridor. Eventhough it is old building, lift is available there
