    Not keen on self check in and no secure parking. As there were no restaurant/ cafe on site it would have been nice to have a kettle in the room to make a drink.

    Great views from Mountain side. Great shower

    Nice location with wonderful views but missing some essential items!

    The common room has no heating water purposes, no microwave, no fridge so lacks alot of many things you'd find in other hotels, pensions and even some albergues I have visited had a microwave. I would normally give this a 9 or 10 but it is also unmanned from a Host perspective (although they have people onsite during certain times of the day), but it is missing too many essential items to be called a Hotel, so I had to knock off some points.

    Spacious, clean, safe and wonderful views above Bilbao city. There is a bush track that runs from the hotel down to the town but it does involve a good level of fitness. Great transport by Bilbo bus services (just get the app so you can time the buses) and the funicular is not too far away near the recreational parks.

    After booking I got an email ensuring I was comfortable with a non personal check in in Spanish. On reaching the address and using the intercom the person did seem a bit nonplussed by my lack of Spanish. But my name led to the door being opened and there is an English option on the check in system which requires your passport and I found easy to use. So just a little more information on what to do on arrival would help it work for everyone. It is impersonal by design but it works.

    Lovely location which with a bit of research and especially if you obtain a BBCARD (www.bilbaobizkaiacard.com) which you can use on the funicular railway as well tram bus and metro is bith spectacular and fairly local to the Guggenheim etc. No kettle but there is a vending machine which takes cash only.

    We did not learn that the hotel typically has no staff in the building. You don’t learn this until after you have paid. Fortunately it was a warm day - the rooms are only heated to 15C

    Nice location within a 15 minute walk of the funicular to downtown

    - linnen and towels smelled bad (hopefully this was a one time issue) - light from the parking area was on all night and there was no way to block the light that was shining into our room

    - the host was very friendly and helpful - remote desk check-in worked quickly - bus stop in front of the hotel with a bus to the city every hour

    If you are someone who needs a peaceful sleep, then absolutely avoid this property.

    For a hotel for €75 per night, at least you should be able to sleep in a dark room and expect basic amenities like shampoo, soap and clean towels. Everything was missing in the room. I couldn’t sleep at all because the room was full bright because of the bright lights in the parking area. The room did have whites “curtains” which was absolutely useless for the light outside. I would definitely not recommend the property to those who want to have a peaceful sleep. The photos below were taken at 11pm at night.

    I can’t say much about what i liked about the stay because price to comfort ratio is just disappointing.

    These rooms are very small. No directional signs as to where to enter the hotel from the street. AC is controlled by hotel even with very hot temperature and turns on and off all night. No hair dryer, manager indicated guests need to bring their belongins when asked... what!!!! Any airbnb offers a hair dryer. No shampoo. Toilet seat loose. Stairs are very steep and dangerous with no hand rails. The shower is unsafe with two floor texturas one is slippeery. Parking is offered yet it's in the street not on premises. Overall this is a poor proposal dor normal.people.

    Location and view.
