Excellent location for all the Casco Viejo facilities.
Pros:

The location is excellent for the Old Town and is only steps away from the Plaza Nuevo where there are many tapas bars. However, the there was no noise whatsoever from the road outside.

Cons:

The spotlessly clean single room could have benefitted from tea/coffee making facilities but the bathroom was excellent.

Gutes Mittelklassehotel im Herzen von Bilbao
Pros:

Das Hotel liegt in der Altstadt von Bilbao, ist somit gut gelegen um in der Altstadt spazieren zu gehen.
Außerdem ist die Metrostation aber auch Busstationen sehr nahe am Hotel.
Das Frühstück war sehr gut, alles frisch und alles in entsprechender Menge vorhanden.

It’s very convenient for the city and I would be happy to come again.
Pros:

I was upgraded to a double room on the top floor which was a nice surprise and it was quiet away from the street. The location was very central and there are lovely places to eat in the square behind. The staff were very friendly.

Cons:

Nothing
