Top San Sebastián Centro Hotel Reviews

Limehome San Sebastian Zubieta Kalea

8/10 Good

"The room was very clean. Not overly spacious. Did not know the bed was actually a Murphy-style bed, not that it mattered. It was very firm. Pillows were great! Bathroom was very clean. Shower was great with a lot of water pressure. Took a bit for the water to warm up, though. It would have been nice if there were enough coffee pods for each person to have two cups each, for each day. The location was great for our needs. Not too far for walking to all parts of San Sebastián."
