Great facilities, caring owners
The hostel is new and very nicely designed in a good area, 1 block from Zurriola surf beach and under 10 min walk to the old town. Bare essentials kitchen and good wifi everywhere. There is a bar/cafe downstairs and the actual dorms are right next door in a residential apartment so you need to be peaceful in there. The owners David and Haritz are two of the nicest, hospitable guys you'll ever meet who will make your stay a memorable one. Also try the salmon toastie!

Ich hatte hier einen super Aufenthalt! Das Personal, besonders die zwei Besitzer Aritz und David sind super freundlich. Die Entfernung zum Strand ist für Surfer einzigartig (1-2 min.)

Prisvärt hostel med hjälpsam personal
Är väldigt nöjd med allt. Trevlig personal. Bra ytor inne på hostelet. Mycket trevlig bar där det en av dagarna var live musik.
